Why These Ingredients
Common Mistakes, Notes, Prep in Advance, Storage, Swaps & Tips
Notes:
- Use ceremonial grade matcha for drinking — it's more vibrant, smoother, and less bitter than culinary grade.
- Never use boiling water — it makes matcha bitter and dull. Target 175°F (80°C).
Storage:
- Whisk matcha ahead and refrigerate (covered) for up to 2 days. Shake or stir before using.
Swaps:
- Use barista oat milk for the creamiest result, or any plant-based milk of choice.
- Swap maple syrup for agave or simple syrup.
Tips:
- Pour the matcha slowly over the back of a spoon to create a beautiful green layer on top of the milk.
