Shake it vigorously for another 10 seconds and fill it into a glass with ice cubes. Èt voilà, the refreshing drink is ready to serve.

Common mistakes when preparing Iced Matcha

clumping

If the process of beating is too short, lumps will quickly form.
taste disturbances

Matcha should never be dosed too strongly, otherwise the drink will turn bitter despite the milk. When using too little matcha powder, the milk masks the flavor of the Matcha. Therefore, we recommend one teaspoon of the green powder for a glass of iced Matcha latte.
milk alternatives

Choosing the wrong milk alternative can overshadow the taste of Matcha. Soy and oat drinks are the best options. If you want to add a nutty note, choose an almond drink. A rice drink is also an option, but it does not have the creamy texture of the other plant drinks. Our favorite for an exotic note is a coconut rice drink, which pairs particularly well with Matcha.

Make Iced Matcha Latte in larger quantities yourself

To prepare several portions at once, we recommend mixing the Matcha in a bowl with water before pouring it into the glasses. Froth the milk in a separate container and add it to the tea as needed.

This allows you to create the drink for several people at the same time without having to repeat the process individually. Be careful not to overdo the Matcha to avoid a bitter taste.
