Instructions
Soak your bamboo whisk in hot water, about halfway up the bristles, before using.
In a small bowl, sift matcha powder. Add hot water, then whisk vigorously with a bamboo whisk until smooth and foamy on the surface. Use "M" or "W" motion. Once froth forms, brush the surface with the tip of the bamboo whisk, keep using "M" or "W" motion, to break large bubbles.
For an iced matcha latte, fill the glass with ice cubes and add the milk. Pour the whisked matcha over it. Stir in the sweetener if using. Mix well and enjoy!
For a hot matcha latte, steam or warm the milk before adding to a mug.
