Here's a step-by-step guide on how to make Matcha milk tea at home.

What exactly is Matcha?

Green tea is produced uniquely to make matcha, then milled into a fine powder. Instead of steeping the tea and removing the leaves like with conventional green tea, you consume the entire green tea leaf.

Ingredients and Alternates

  • Green tea matcha powder 

  • Warm water  

  • If using dried tapioca pearls, you must cook them before utilizing them in tapioca boba.  

  • You may use any milk for this recipe, including dairy and non-dairy substitutes like almond, soy, and oat milk.  

  • Ice cubes can be added if desired  

  • Sweetener: If you need it, add some honey or maple syrup. Add a bit more if the sweetness from the brown sugar tapioca pearls is insufficient.

Instructions

  • Heat the milk: Pour the milk into a small saucepan and heat it over medium heat until it begins to steam. Do not let it boil.  

  • Whisk the matcha: Add the matcha powder and a small amount of hot water (about two tablespoons) in a small bowl. Use a frother to whisk the matcha powder and water together until it forms a smooth paste.  

  • Combine the milk and matcha: Pour the matcha paste into the hot milk and whisk it until it is smooth. 

  • Add sweetener: If desired, add a sweetener of your choice, such as honey or sugar, and whisk the mixture until it is well combined.  

  • Serve and enjoy: Pour the matcha milk tea into a mug and serve it hot. If desired, add boba or tapioca pearls for extra texture and flavor.

Here are Some Tips for Making the Perfect Matcha Milk Tea

1. Use high-quality matcha powder for the best flavor and texture. Look for ceremonial-grade matcha, which is of the highest quality and has a smooth and delicate flavor.  

2. Use a matcha whisk or a frother to create a smooth texture. If you don't have a whisk or frother, you can use a blender or a handheld electric frother.  

3. Experiment with different types of milk, such as almond or coconut milk, to create a vegan version of the drink.  

4. Adjust the sweetness and flavor to suit your preferences. Add more or less sweetener or flavors like vanilla or cinnamon to create a unique and delicious Matcha milk tea.
