Matcha Affogato

teas.co.uk · 6 min · Serves 1

You'll need

• 2g Loyd Matcha Japanese Green Tea Powder
• 80ml hot whole milk (heated to 80C)
• 2 small scoops of good vanilla ice cream
• 1 small 200ml glass, chilled
• 1 small saucepan
• 1 small bamboo whisk
• 1 long spoon, for eating

Method

1. Chill a small glass and scoop the vanilla ice cream into it.
2. Heat the milk to steaming, around 80C, not boiling.
3. Off the heat, whisk the matcha into the hot milk until you have a smooth, strong, lump free concentrate.
4. Pour the warm matcha straight over the ice cream so it pools and starts to melt it.
5. Eat at once with a long spoon, while it is still part warm, part cold.
6. Tip: sift the matcha before whisking so it melts in clean, with no bitter little clumps.
