Ingredients
For the fruit matcha
- 1 tsp matcha powder

Fruit foam

- 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.
