How to Make Matcha Green Tea

How to Prepare Matcha Tea

Matcha is an incredibly versatile ingredient- you can make matcha tea, matcha lattes, bake with matcha and also use it in your skincare routine. There are many ways to make matcha from using traditional utensils like a bamboo whisk or with just your standard teaspoon.

How to Make Matcha Tea without a Bamboo Whisk
1. Place 1/2 teaspoon of matcha into a cup and add a tablespoon of hot (not boiling) water.
2. Using your spoon mix thoroughly to remove any lumps of matcha (it’s easy to use the sides of the teacup to assist with this).
3. Top up with more hot water for a hot drink or iced water and ice for an iced matcha tea. Enjoy!
How to Make Matcha Green Tea with a Bamboo Whisk
1. Preheat your matcha bowl by filling one-third of it with hot water. Dip the prongs of your matcha whisk in this hot water to soften them. Empty the bowl and dry with a clean cloth.
2. Sift or place 1 level scoop (or 1/2 teaspoon) of matcha into the bottom of the matcha bowl. Note: You can sift this scoop of matcha into the bowl or you can simply use the end of the whisk to press down gently to break up the powder.
3. Add approximately 70 mls of hot water (80 degrees Celcius).
4. Hold the rim of the matcha bowl with one hand and the whisk with the other. Using your wrist whisk vigorously in “W” motion. You should see lots of bubbles on the surface & a thick froth. Enjoy!
How to Make a Matcha Latte
1. Place 1-2 teaspoons of matcha into a cup (adjust quantity to your taste).
2. Add 2 tablespoons of hot water and use a spoon to remove any clumps and mix thoroughly.
3. Add approximately 70 MLS of hot water (80 degrees Celcius).
4. Add hot frothy milk and two teaspoons of honey or a sweetener of your choice. You can adjust the sweetness to your taste.
