Ingredients

• 1 teaspoon Matcha green tea powder
• 60 milliliters Hot water
• 240 milliliters Low-fat milk
• 1 teaspoon Honey or another sweetener (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Start by sifting the matcha green tea powder into a cup or small bowl to remove any clumps, ensuring a smooth mixture.

Step 2

Bring 60 milliliters of water to just below boiling. Typically around 80°C or 176°F is ideal.

Step 3

Pour the hot water over the sifted matcha powder gradually. Using a bamboo whisk or a small regular whisk, whisk the mixture in a zigzag motion until all the powder is dissolved and the mixture is frothy.

Step 4

In a small saucepan, heat the low-fat milk over medium heat until it is hot but not boiling. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking or burning.

Step 5

If you desire sweetener, add honey or any sweetener of choice to the hot milk and stir until fully dissolved.

Step 6

Once the milk is ready, use a milk frother to froth it until it doubles in volume and becomes thick and foamy. Alternatively, you can whisk vigorously in the saucepan off the heat.

Step 7

Pour the frothy milk over the matcha mixture slowly, holding back the froth with a spoon to pour it over the top at the end.

Step 8

Stir gently to combine the matcha and milk, and then top with the froth.

Step 9

Serve immediately while hot and enjoy your low-fat matcha latte.
