Ingredients
1 teaspoon ceremonial-grade matcha powder
2–3 tablespoons hot water (not boiling)
1/4 cup full-fat canned coconut milk
3/4 cup unsweetened almond milk
1–2 teaspoons maple syrup (optional)
1 cup ice cubes
Instructions
1. Heat water until hot but not boiling, about 175°F (80°C).
2. Place the matcha powder into a small bowl.
3. Pour the hot water over the matcha.
4. Whisk using a bamboo whisk in an “M” motion until the matcha is completely dissolved and lightly foamy.
5. Fill a tall serving glass with ice cubes.
6. Pour the full-fat coconut milk into the glass.
7. Add the almond milk.
8. Pour the prepared matcha mixture over the milk.
9. Stir in the maple syrup if desired.
10. Mix well and serve immediately.
Notes
Use ceremonial-grade matcha for the smoothest flavor and vibrant green color.
Full-fat canned coconut milk creates the richest and creamiest texture.
A handheld milk frother or shaker bottle works if you don’t have a bamboo whisk.
Adjust the sweetness with maple syrup, honey, agave, or your favorite sweetener.
For an extra creamy drink, blend all ingredients with ice before serving.
