The story

Matcha has been whisked in Japan since the 12th century; oat milk joined the party eight centuries later and never left. The trick is whisking the matcha with water first.

Oat Milk Matcha Latte Made with plants

Method

  1. Sift

    Sift the matcha into a bowl or mug — 10 seconds that prevents every lump.

  2. Whisk

    Add the hot water and whisk in a zig-zag (bamboo whisk or a small regular one) until foamy with no clumps.

  3. Milk it

    Warm and froth the oat milk (or shake it hard in a jar for iced). Pour over the matcha, sweeten if you like.

  4. Admire, then drink

    That green-on-cream swirl is the whole aesthetic. Enjoy it before you stir.

Little tips ♡

  • Water at 80°C, never boiling — boiling water turns matcha bitter.
  • Culinary-grade matcha is fine for lattes.
  • Iced: matcha + water + shake with ice, then top with cold oat milk.
