A refreshing Strawberry Matcha Latte combining the earthy flavors of matcha with sweet, creamy strawberry-infused cream. Quick to prepare and perfect served over ice, this latte balances the delicate bitterness of matcha with fruity sweetness and creamy textures, ideal for a delightful afternoon treat or energizing morning beverage.

Ingredients

For the Matcha Latte

  • 1 teaspoon matcha powder (ceremonial grade)
  • 2 oz hot water
  • 1 teaspoon liquid sweetener (e.g., agave nectar)
  • 5 oz milk (dairy or plant-based, oat milk preferred)
  • Ice (enough to fill glass about 3/4 full)

For the Strawberry Sweet Cream

  • 2–3 medium strawberries
  • 2 oz heavy cream
  • 1 oz milk
  • 1 teaspoon sweetener

Instructions

  1. Prepare Matcha Latte: Sift the matcha powder into a small bowl to remove lumps. Pour in 2 oz of hot water and whisk vigorously with a bamboo whisk or milk frother until the matcha dissolves completely and a light foam appears on top. Stir in the liquid sweetener while the mixture is warm to ensure it blends well.
  2. Assemble the Latte: Fill a glass about three-quarters full with ice. Pour in the 5 oz of milk followed by the prepared matcha. Stir gently to combine the layers.
  3. Make Strawberry Sweet Cream: In a small bullet blender, combine the strawberries, heavy cream, 1 oz of milk, and sweetener. Blend for 5 to 10 seconds until the mixture reaches a smooth, melted ice cream-like consistency.
  4. Combine and Serve: Pour the strawberry sweet cream carefully over the matcha latte. Give the drink a gentle stir to create a beautiful gradient effect while blending some of the layers together. Serve immediately and enjoy.

Notes

  • Use ceremonial grade matcha powder for the best flavor and smoothness.
  • Oat milk is preferred for its creamy texture and natural sweetness but any milk or plant-based alternative can be used.
  • Adjust the amount of sweetener according to your taste preferences.
  • Blending the strawberry cream just enough to maintain a velvety texture prevents it from turning too thin.
  • Serve this latte over fresh ice to keep it chilled and refreshing.
