How to Make the Perfect Matcha Latte

We recommend you use not quite boiling water, around 80°C works well.

If you are using a chashaku (a Japanese bamboo teaspoon) we recommend 4 scoops, or 2 scoops from an ordinary teaspoon (approx. 3g)

  1. Pass your matcha powder through a tea strainer into your tea bowl or cup.
  2. Pour around 60ml of not quite boiling water into the tea bowl.

3. Whisk this for around 15 seconds with a chasen (Japanese bamboo whisk) or a small whisk. It should be smooth and slightly foamy.

4. Pour in the warm milk of your choice (we recommend soy milk) and enjoy!
