An easy go-to matcha for people who aren't coffee people but still want a little caffeine. Earthy and umami, and perfectly sweetened with a teaspoon of Matriarca Agave.

Ingredients

  • 4 grams of ceremonial grade matcha powder
  • 35ml of warm water
  • 150ml of your favorite milk
  • 1 tsp Matriarca Agave

Directions

  1. Sift matcha powder into a small bowl
  2. Add the warm water. Not boiling, because that can burn the matcha.
  3. If you have one use a bamboo whisk (chasen), if not a regular small whisk will do, in a fast, vigorous "M" or "W" motion, keeping it light and not pressing hard, until a fine, frothy foam forms on top, usually 30-60 seconds.
  4. Add 150ml of your favorite milk (I use oat or soy).
  5. Stir in 1 tsp Matriarca Agave to naturally but deliciously sweeten your matcha. If you want it sweeter, you can always add more. You can also add a splash a vanilla extract and Sal de Colima to elevate it.
