Preparing matcha
Your matcha moment begins with a few simple steps. Whether enjoyed pure, creamy, or over ice: find the preparation that suits you best.
01 – The Foundation
Measure the powder according to the package instructions. Sift it into a bowl and add a small amount of warm water first. Whisk vigorously with a bamboo whisk until the mixture is smooth. Observe the temperature recommendations for your product.
02 – Your Matcha Latte
Prepare the matcha base. Heat milk or a plant-based drink of your choice and froth as desired. Pour over the base, taste, and sweeten to your preference.
03 – On Ice
Fill a glass with ice cubes and cold milk or a plant-based drink. Slowly pour the freshly whisked matcha base over it and stir briefly.
For your next matcha moment
- Sift the powder to reduce clumping.
- Add water gradually.
- Rinse the bamboo whisk with water and let it dry thoroughly.
- Store matcha tightly sealed, in a dry place protected from light. The instructions on the packaging take precedence.
You don't need a perfect ceremony. Just a cup and a moment to yourself.
