  • 2 tsp Maple Syrup or honey

Instructions

  • Over medium to medium-low, heat up 1 cup of your almond milk in a small saucepan. 
  • The other 1/4 of the almond milk is reserved for frothing, I use my espresso machine and let the foam set as I go make the matcha. 
  • Add one tsp of matcha to a matcha bowl (chawan), pour the 80-degree water to the side of it, not over top. Using a bamboo whisk (chasen) froth the matcha. This preparation is known as koicha, as it is much thicker than the more common matcha tea (known as usucha). 
  • Add the hot almond milk into your glass. using a spoon gently pour the frothed matcha. It should settle gently on the top. using a spoon gently place the frothed almond milk on top. 
  • Sprinkle with matcha over top and enjoy!
