Green and earthy, your morning lattes will never be the same with this homemade, vegan matcha latte powdered mix. You can make and store the powder for another time or follow the directions to make a latte pronto!
Sift the matcha, powdered sugar and powdered coconut milk together.
To prepare a latte: add the matcha latte mix to 1 cup of hot water. Mix well.
Optional but highly recommended: Use a hand-held milk frother to make it smooth and frothy. Serve!
Notes
You can easily adjust the amount of each ingredient, according to taste.
I use powdered because it blends nicely in the powdered mix and dissolves quickly but feel free to use coconut sugar or granulated sugar as an alternative.
This recipe makes enough for one cup of matcha latte, but can easily be scaled up by dragging the serving size slider on the recipe card if you want to make it in bulk and store in the cupboard or to take on the go.
If you do plan on making a large batch of the powder to have on hand, just be sure to add a small amount of the mix to the mug of hot water to begin with, and work your way up from there, to taste.
Matcha can contain almost as much caffeine as a cup of coffee (70 mg in matcha vs. 70 mg to 140 mg in coffee).
Blender Trick:
If you have a blender around, you could blend the powder mixture with 1 cup hot water to make it extra frothy and smooth by: opening the vent hole on the lid and placing a kitchen towel over it loosely.
The vent hole needs to be open to prevent pressure build-up. The kitchen towel will prevent splashing of the hot liquid through the vent hole while still allowing steam to escape. Start blender on low and speed up gradually, until blended.
