Instructions

1. Sift the matcha powder into a bowl to remove any lumps. 2. Add the hot water to the matcha powder and whisk vigorously in a zigzag motion until the tea is frothy and well-mixed. 3. In a small pot, heat the milk over medium heat until it is steaming but not boiling. 4. Using a milk frother or whisk, froth the heated milk until it becomes creamy and slightly frothy. 5. Pour the matcha mixture into a mug, and add the frothed milk on top. Stir gently to combine. 6. Sweeten to taste if desired, and enjoy your Matcha Latte warm.
