This is a real pleasure even in the hot or cold versions.

How to prepare

For this drink, make the matcha traditionally, use a little bit less water to get a denser base drink. Heat the Chawan (tea bowl) with hot water, then wipe it to dry. After that, just strain the ceremonial grade Zhao Zhou matcha powder into the Chawan. Straining is one of the most important steps, it helps to get a smooth and easily mixable beverage. Mix the matcha powder and the hot water with the Chasen (tea brush). Firstly take some slow eight-shape movement, then mix it well with fast moves, approximately for a minute. If the foam contains only small bubbles, you have excellent matcha. Pour it into the choice of hot or cold milk.
