Strawberry Matcha Latte

/ Recipes / By

A viral, fruity twist on the iced latte that balances the earthy green tea with sweet, fresh strawberry puree.

Ingredients:

  • 1 tsp matcha powder
  • 2 oz warm water
  • 1/2 cup fresh strawberries (diced)
  • 1 tbsp sugar or agave (to taste)
  • 1 cup cold milk of your choice
  • Ice

Instructions:

  1. Make the Puree: In a small saucepan, simmer the diced strawberries and sugar with a splash of water over medium heat for 5-10 minutes, mashing the berries until it becomes a syrupy puree. Let it cool. (Alternatively, muddle the berries and sugar raw in a glass).
  2. Whisk the Matcha: Sift and whisk the matcha powder with 2 oz of warm water until frothy.
  3. Assemble: Spoon your strawberry puree into the bottom of a glass. Add ice, pour in your milk, and top with the whisked matcha.
