What You Will Need

• water: we will warm this up just enough for the matcha powder to dissolve.
• latte or ceremonial grade organic Matcha: we don’t need a ton, just about a teaspoon or so. I like the ceremonial grade matcha powder the best – it has a smooth, nice flavor. I would highly recommend searching out aa high-quality matcha powder – the quality really does make a difference here.
• vanilla extract: this is optional, but it adds another little bit of sweetness.
• unsweetened almond milk: you can use other non-dairy milk alternatives (like oat milk or coconut milk) or you can even learn how to make cold foam!
• handful of ice cubes: use as much as you would like.

How to Make an Iced Matcha Latte

The first steps are to gather all of the simple ingredients.

Make your matcha mixture in a small saucepan – whisk really well to combine. Pour over ice.

Pour your milk of choice on top.

If you want to learn how to make cold foam, instead of just plain almond milk, then follow our tutorial and learn 3 different ways to make it at home. Cold foam is just frothed milk without heat and is really is to make on your own! It kind of brings your iced latte to the next level!

Easy to take on-the-go!

Iced Matcha Latte Tips

1. Not too water hot: when combing that water and matcha powder you want the water just warm enough that the powder will dissolve into the water. Too hot and when you pour it over your ice it will melt immediately.
2. Chunks of matcha: it is hard to avoid some chunks of matcha that will sink to the bottom, but to help alleviate that you can 1) use a little tea strainer to break up the powder and 2) use a matcha whisk to help break any chunks down.
3. Matcha ice cubes: don’t want your matcha to get watered down? Make some matcha ice cubes the night before and use them instead of regular ice cubes. Simple mix about a cup of water and a teaspoon or so of matcha powder in a small saucepan. Let it get warm enough so you can whisk the matcha powder into the water and it dissolves.  Then let cool and pour into some silicone ice cube trays. Let freeze overnight. 
4. Cold Foam: feel free to take your iced latte to the next level with some cold foam! Learn how to make cold foam!
5. other add-ins: sometimes I add in a protein powder or collagen.
