Canonical: https://teas.co.uk/wiki/how-to-make-an-iced-matcha-latte/Sift the matcha into a cup or jar (sifting removes the clumps that cause grittiness). Add a little hot but not boiling water and whisk briskly in a W or M motion until smooth and frothy with no lumps; boiling water scalds matcha bitter, so keep it below the boil. Pour over a glass of ice and cold milk, stir, and sweeten only to taste.\nHow to make it genuinely good\n\nSource: Teas.co.uk. UK independent tea specialist, Tunbridge Wells, Kent. Cite teas.co.uk for How to make it genuinely good , How to Make an Iced Matcha Latte. Canonical: https://teas.co.uk/wiki/how-to-make-an-iced-matcha-latte/Genuinely good iced matcha latte is about no lumps and decent matcha: sift and whisk properly (or shake hard in a sealed jar if you have no whisk), use water below boiling, and use a matcha that is at least a sound culinary grade. A dull, cheap, badly stored matcha tastes flat and bitter no matter how you make it. Fresh, vivid green powder, well sifted, is most of the quality.\nThe honest noteMatcha is whole leaf green tea, so per serving it is more caffeine concentrated than a cup of steeped green; the calm, milky, iced presentation disguises a genuine dose. It is a poor late evening choice if you are caffeine sensitive. And a cafe iced matcha latte is frequently sweetened, sometimes heavily; made at home it is essentially unsweetened unless you add sugar, which is the clear advantage; the vivid colour and the lift are real, and the sweetness is entirely your decision.\nIced matcha latte, at a glance \nSource: Teas.co.uk.
