Notes
Note 1: The best temperature to make matcha is 158-176°F (70-80°C). To make 176°F hot water, boil the filtered water and pour it into a glass to cool a bit. Then add it to matcha powder. If your kettle has temperature control, it works amazingly!
Can I use frozen bananas to make the banana milk?
Yes definitely! Frozen bananas work well, just blend longer until the desired consistency, or add a splash more milk and sweetener, like maple syrup, to make it less thick. Also, if you like smoothie consistency, try the Matcha Banana Smoothie!
