Ingredients
- 2 teaspoons of Organic Sweet Matcha
- 2 ounces of near boiling filtered water
- 8 ounces of coconut milk
- Coconut shavings for garnish
Directions
1. Prepare the Matcha Base:
Start by adding 2 teaspoons of Organic Sweet Matcha to a matcha whisking bowl or small mixing bowl. Heat 2 ounces of filtered water to just below boiling (about 175°F) and pour it over the matcha. Using a bamboo whisk or small hand frother, whisk vigorously in a zigzag motion until the matcha is fully dissolved and frothy.
2. Heat and Froth the Coconut Milk:
In a small saucepan, gently warm 8 ounces of coconut milk over low-medium heat until steaming, but not boiling. Once heated, transfer the milk to a frothing pitcher or tall container. Use a hand frother to froth the coconut milk for 30 seconds to 1 minute, creating a velvety, cloud-like texture.
3. Assemble the Latte:
Pour the prepared matcha into your favorite mug and slowly pour the frothed coconut milk over the matcha in circular motions. This creates a beautifully blended drink with a soft, snowy finish on top.
4. Add a Garnish:
Sprinkle the latte with coconut shavings to mimic freshly fallen snow. For an extra touch of holiday spirit, add a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg. Feeling adventurous? Top it off with a drizzle of honey or a stick of cinnamon to stir in some seasonal sweetness.
Celebrate the cozy magic of winter with this Coconut Matcha Latte, a deliciously festive twist on the classic matcha drink.
The creamy coconut milk and frothy texture evoke all the warmth of the season, while the bright, earthy matcha brings a refreshing energy to those frosty days.
Perfect for sipping while watching snowflakes fall or sharing with loved ones, this latte is a wintertime treat you’ll want to enjoy all season long. So grab your mug and make every sip feel like a snowy wonderland!
