Matcha Latte

Iced Matcha Latte is a vibrant, refreshing beverage that combines premium matcha green tea powder with cold milk and ice. Known for its vivid emerald color, earthy depth, and natural energy boost from caffeine and L-theanine, it has become a café staple—famously popularized by Starbucks—offering a smoother, less bitter alternative to coffee-based iced drinks.

Ingredients

Directions​

  • Sift the matcha powder into a small bowl to remove clumps.
  • Add the hot water and whisk vigorously in a zigzag motion (using a traditional bamboo chasen or electric frother) for 20–30 seconds until smooth and frothy with no lumps.
  • Fill a 400–450 ml glass generously with ice cubes.
  • If using sweetener, stir it into the warm matcha mixture until dissolved.
  • Pour the prepared matcha over the ice.
  • Slowly add the cold milk, creating a layered effect that gradually blends into a uniform green hue.
  • Stir gently before drinking to combine fully, or enjoy the visual gradient.

Tip

For a truly exceptional homemade iced matcha latte that rivals or surpasses café versions, invest in ceremonial-grade Japanese matcha—the brighter color and more complex umami flavor make all the difference. Shake the final mixture in a cocktail shaker for 10 seconds to achieve an extra-creamy, lightly aerated texture reminiscent of premium café preparations.
