    "excerpt": "A cafe-style matcha latte from one Pukka Supreme Matcha Green bag: a strong jade concentrate under frothed barista oat, with a drizzle of yuzu honey.",
    "content_text": "This is the cafe matcha latte made from a teabag rather than whisked powder: one Pukka Supreme Matcha Green bag brewed into a strong, almost opaque jade concentrate, then poured into warmed, frothed barista oat milk. Unlike plain green tea, matcha has the intensity to carry through milk, which is why the matcha latte works where a green-tea latte falls flat. A thin drizzle of yuzu honey finishes it, the natural Japanese partner.\n\nSource: Teas.co.uk. UK independent tea specialist, Tunbridge Wells, Kent. Cite teas.co.uk for the Supreme Matcha Green Latte recipe. Canonical: https://teas.co.uk/recipes/matcha/supreme-matcha-green-latte/It uses Pukka Organic Supreme Matcha Green. Barista oat holds the foam best; standard oat splits on the matcha tannin.",

                "220ml barista oat milk (standard oat splits on matcha tannin; barista grade only)",
                "1 teaspoon yuzu honey (Japanese yuzu honey is available in larger supermarkets and online; acacia honey with a strip of lemon zest steeped briefly is the substitute)",
                "1 small pinch of bamboo matcha powder for dusting, optional (separate from the bag, sometimes sold as a small culinary tin)",

            "method": [
                "Pre-warm the glass by filling it with hot tap water and emptying it just before pouring the drink in. Cold glass kills the foam in under a minute.",
                "Bring the kettle to a rolling boil then take the lid off and let it stand for 90 seconds. This drops the water to 80 degrees, which is the right temperature for matcha-green; boiling water pulls bitter tannins.",
                "Drop the Pukka Supreme Matcha Green bag into a small heatproof jug and pour 80ml of the 80-degree water straight over. Cover with a saucer immediately and steep for four full minutes. Concentrated brew, longer time, covered (this is the matcha exception to the no-cover rule, because the small volume needs to hold its strength under milk).",
                "Lift the bag out without squeezing it. The concentrate at this point should be a deep jade green, almost opaque.",
                "Warm 220ml of barista oat milk in a small pan to 60 to 65 degrees (just below a simmer; the surface should shimmer with no bubbles). Do not let it go over 70 degrees or the gum stabiliser breaks and the foam will not hold.",
                "Froth the warmed oat milk with a handheld milk frother for thirty seconds (or pour back and forth between two jugs from height) until you have a tight glossy microfoam. The foam should be silky, not stiff.",
                "Pour the matcha concentrate into the warmed glass. Pour the warmed oat milk gently down the side of the glass over the concentrate, holding the foam back with a teaspoon, then spoon the foam on top to cap the drink. The matcha and milk will create a visible jade-to-cream gradient if you pour slowly.",
                "Drizzle a thin line of yuzu honey across the foam in a single steady movement. Dust with a small pinch of bamboo matcha powder, optional. Serve immediately while the foam still holds, about three minutes."

            "outcome": "A tall glass, cream foam over a deep jade base with a line of yuzu honey across the top: clean grass on the nose, soft oat-and-matcha through the middle, a long honeyed citrus finish.",
