Description
A soothing and energizing cinnamon matcha latte blending the earthy flavor of matcha with warm cinnamon and creamy plant-based milk. This quick, single-serving drink is perfect for a calming morning boost or a cozy afternoon treat.
Ingredients
Matcha Mix
- 1 cup hot water (heated, e.g., in a Keurig)
- 1 teaspoon matcha powder
- ⅛ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon maple syrup (optional)
Milk
- ¼ cup plant-based milk or milk of choice
Instructions
- Mix Matcha: Add the matcha powder to a matcha bowl or any small bowl. If using a sifter, sift the matcha first to avoid lumps. Whisk the matcha together with the hot water until smooth and frothy. Stir in the ground cinnamon and maple syrup, if you choose to sweeten your latte.
- Assemble Latte: Pour the prepared matcha mixture into your favorite mug. Slowly add the plant-based milk or milk of choice over the matcha. Serve immediately and enjoy your warm, spiced latte.
Notes
- Using a bamboo whisk or a small electric frother helps achieve a creamy, frothy texture.
- Adjust the sweetness to taste or omit the maple syrup for a pure matcha flavor.
- Plant milk options like almond, oat, or soy work well depending on your preference.
- For a cold version, chill the matcha mix and pour over ice with cold milk.
