A quick and easy creamy matcha latte topped with luscious sweet cream cold foam, perfect for cozy mornings or refreshing afternoon pick-me-ups.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 to 1½ teaspoons high-quality, finely sifted matcha powder
  • 2 ounces (60 ml) hot water just below boiling (about 175°F/80°C)
  • 8 ounces (240 ml) milk of choice (whole milk, almond, or oat milk)
  • ¼ cup (60 ml) heavy cream for sweet cream cold foam
  • 2 tablespoons (30 ml) sweetened condensed milk or simple syrup
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Optional: pinch of sea salt for foam, sprinkle of matcha powder for garnish

Instructions

  1. Sift 1 to 1½ teaspoons of matcha powder into a small bowl or cup to prevent clumps.
  2. Add 2 ounces (60 ml) of hot water at about 175°F (80°C) to the matcha powder.
  3. Whisk vigorously in a zig-zag motion with a bamboo whisk or small regular whisk until frothy and bright green, about 30 seconds.
  4. Heat 8 ounces (240 ml) of milk in a small saucepan over medium heat until steaming but not boiling (about 150°F / 65°C), stirring occasionally.
  5. In a chilled bowl, combine ¼ cup (60 ml) heavy cream, 2 tablespoons (30 ml) sweetened condensed milk or simple syrup, and ½ teaspoon vanilla extract. Froth with a handheld frother or electric mixer until light and airy, about 1-2 minutes.
  6. Slowly pour the warm milk into the matcha mixture, stirring gently to combine.
  7. Top the latte with the sweet cream cold foam. Optionally, dust with a pinch of matcha powder.
  8. Serve immediately and enjoy.

Notes

Chill the cream before frothing for better foam. Use water at about 175°F (80°C) to avoid bitterness. If foam deflates quickly, whip less or chill bowl before frothing. For vegan version, substitute heavy cream with full-fat coconut cream and use oat milk and maple syrup.
