Fruit Matcha Latte with Strawberry & Mango

Prep: 10 minTotal: 10 minServings: 1 large glass

Ingredients

For the fruit matcha

  • 1 tsp matcha powder
  • 2 tsp hot water
  • 200 ml (7 fl oz.) cold milk (or plant milk, e.g. oat)
  • 1 Tbsp honey (or other sweetener)
  • 100 gr (3.5 oz.) fresh strawberries or mango
  • ice cubes

For the fruit foam

  • 50 ml (1.7 fl oz.) milk (or plant milk)
  • 1-2 Tbsp strawberry or mango syrup

Instructions

Fruit purée

  1. Wash the fruit (strawberries or mango) and cut into pieces.
  2. Blend to a smooth purée, sweetening with a little syrup if needed.

Matcha

  1. Whisk the matcha powder with the hot water in a bowl until fully dissolved.
  2. Add the cold milk and honey and mix.

Fruit foam

  1. Froth the milk with the strawberry or mango syrup using a milk frother or blender until foamy.

Serve

  1. Spoon the fruit purée into a glass, scatter the ice cubes on top and pour over the matcha.
  2. Finish with the fruit foam and garnish with fresh strawberries or mango pieces and a pinch of matcha powder. Enjoy immediately.

Notes

Tip from my kitchen: for the prettiest layers I pour the matcha slowly over a spoon onto the ice cubes, so it doesn't mix straight into the purée right away. Ripe, fragrant fruit makes the biggest difference; out of season frozen berries or mango pieces work too. If you like it less sweet, leave the syrup out of the purée and sweeten only lightly with honey.
