Ingredients
Method
-
Sift the matcha. Sift the matcha powder into a bowl to remove any clumps.
-
Whisk. Heat the water to 175°F and pour it into the bowl; never use boiling water, which can bring out bitterness. Whisk well until combined and a layer of froth forms on top.
-
Build the glass. Fill a deep glass with ice cubes. Add the lavender syrup, adjusting to taste, then pour in the milk.
-
Add the matcha. Pour in the matcha, give it a little stir, taste, and enjoy.
Are matcha and lavender good together?
Matcha itself is earthy and aromatic, which pairs beautifully with lavender's floral flavor with hints of mint and rosemary undertones. It makes for a really deliciously nutty and botanical flavor combination that doesn't overpower each other.
This recipe takes on the classic iced matcha latte recipe and giving it a spring/summer makeover by adding just one ingredient: lavender syrup! The unique pairing combines the earthy flavor of matcha with the sweet and floral aroma of lavender. For those who are looking for something refreshing but also relaxing to drink in the afternoon, this was made for you.
Whether you enjoy it hot or iced, a lavender matcha latte is sure please the taste buds and soothe your senses at the same time.
