Wow, after sipping on a delicious strawberry matcha latte, I just stumbled upon the recipe for a Matcha Vanilla Latte and it's a game-changer! Mixing matcha with warm water and steamed vanilla-infused milk creates the perfect blend of earthy matcha and creamy vanilla. It's the ultimate indulgence for a busy day!
Ingredients:
- High-quality matcha powder (I used 'King's Crown' Matcha Green Tea - truly a game-changer!)
- Your favorite milk (Dairy or non-dairy both work great. I used an electric milk frother to get that creamy froth on top!)
- A splash of sweetness with Monin Vanilla syrup (because vanilla makes everything better, right?)
- Start by sifting your matcha powder into a cup to avoid lumps. Trust me, it makes a difference.
- Add just enough hot water to form a smooth paste - think 'zen garden' smooth.
- Froth that milk! Whether you're in the mood for a warm hug in a mug or a cool, refreshing drink, get that milk to your desired level of frothiness.
- Combine the matcha and milk by pouring the froth over the matcha paste. If you're feeling fancy, do it over the back of a spoon for that layered look.
- Drizzle in the vanilla syrup. Stir and taste, and adjust if you like it sweeter.
- (Optional) Top it off with a dusting of matcha or show off your latte art skills if you've got them.
