Using similar techniques to a traditional hot matcha latte, follow these steps to make a delicious iced matcha latte at home! (dairy-free, vegan, paleo)
Measure out matcha powder into a large mug or small bowl and using a bamboo whisk, dry whisk the powder to break up any clumps. Meanwhile, heat water to 175-200f degrees. (not quite boiling)
When water is ready, pour slowly over the matcha and whisk vigorously until all clumps are gone and the mixture is getting thick. Let sit, if adding sweetener, you can do so now and mix.
Separately, add ice to a large glass and pour milk over, leaving room for your matcha to be poured over the milk.
Pour matcha over milk and stir with a straw to combine. Serve and enjoy!
Alternative Preparation (quicker)
Strapped for time? You can skip the hot water step and simply blend your matcha powder with milk in a blender (or a blender bottle you'd add your smoothie to), pouring it all over ice!
