Iced Matcha Latte Recipe: How to get Started

One of the biggest things to keep in mind, especially when making an ice matcha latte, is that you’ll have to be careful of clumps. Matcha clumps up naturally because of the static electricity and the super fine particle size.

It’s an honest indicator of high quality Japanese matcha, albeit not the only one. This effect is most prominent in an iced latte as the cold temperature keeps the powder from dissolving as well as hot water might. 

Of course the clumps won’t hurt you, it’s just not the preferred texture per se. Instead you can be sure to achieve a uniform matcha powder without clumps by choosing to sift your powder before preparing the iced matcha latte.

It’s also worth double checking that you’ve selected a high quality matcha for lattes, such as our Barista Matcha options, specially crafted in Uji, Japan for daily drinking and lattes of all types. 

  • You can also step it up a notch with super premium Ceremonial Grade Matcha, but this is not required.
  • Choosing an authentic source and highest quality of matcha you can afford will ensure your iced matcha latte is the very best it can be.

Savory, sweet and all, without that bitterness from low-quality matcha hidden under the sweetener at your local chain cafe.
