teas.co.uk · 10 min · Serves 1

You'll need

• 3g Loyd Matcha Japanese Green Tea Powder (1.5 chashaku scoops)
• 80ml freshly drawn water cooled to 75C
• 250ml cold whole milk (or cold filtered water)
• 1 tall 450ml glass, chilled in the freezer for ten minutes
• Enough cubed ice (about 250g)
• 1 small bowl, 1 bamboo whisk

Method

1. Sift the matcha into a small bowl to keep it lump free.
2. Boil the kettle and let it cool a couple of minutes to around 75C.
3. Add 80ml of the cooled water and whisk hard in a W motion to a smooth concentrate.
4. Let the concentrate cool, standing the bowl in cold water for a few minutes.
5. Fill a tall glass with ice.
6. Pour the matcha concentrate over, then top with cold milk for a creamy version or cold water for a clean one.
7. Stir well before drinking, as matcha settles.
8. Tip: whisk any sweetener into the warm concentrate, so it dissolves and does not settle grainy at the bottom.
