Ingredients

Scale

Strawberry Purée

  • 4 medium strawberries, stems removed
  • 2.5 tbsp white granulated sugar (or honey or maple syrup as alternatives)

Matcha Mixture

  • 1.5 tsp matcha powder
  • 4 tbsp boiling hot water

For Serving

  • 3/4 cup milk (dairy or plant-based milk)
  • 8 ice cubes (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Strawberry Purée: In a tall 16 oz glass, add the strawberries and granulated sugar. Use a muddler to crush and purée them until smooth. If you don’t have a muddler, finely chop or blend the strawberries with sugar and mix the purée in the glass.
  2. Add Ice Cubes: Place the ice cubes on top of the puréed strawberries to chill the mixture.
  3. Pour Milk: Slowly pour the milk over the ice to combine and set aside for the moment.
  4. Make Matcha: Sift the matcha powder into a small bowl to avoid clumps. Add the boiling hot water and whisk vigorously for about 30 seconds until the matcha is frothy.
  5. Combine and Serve: Pour the frothed matcha over the milk and strawberry mixture. Stir gently to combine all flavors. Enjoy immediately.

Notes

  • You can substitute white granulated sugar with honey or maple syrup for natural sweetness.
  • Use plant-based milk such as almond, oat, or soy milk to make this recipe vegan.
  • Add more or fewer ice cubes depending on your preferred coldness.
  • For a stronger matcha flavor, increase the amount of matcha powder slightly.
  • This latte can be enjoyed without ice as a warm beverage by omitting the ice cubes and using warm milk.
