Ingredients

• ¾ cup oat milk or almond milk / very cold dairy milk
• 4 medium strawberries with stems removed
• 2.5 tablespoon white granulated sugar or granulated cane sugar
• 1.5 teaspoon matcha ceremonial or everyday grade recommended
• 4 tablespoon water hot (not boiling)
• 4-6 ice cubes

Instructions

1. Add the strawberries and sugar to a tall 16-oz drinking glass. Using a muddler, crush the strawberries until they release their juices and form a purée. (If you don't have a muddler, finely chop or purée them in a blender, then mix with the sugar in a glass).
2. Add ice cubes over the puréed strawberries, then pour in the milk. Set aside.
3. Sift the matcha powder into a small bowl. Add hot water (about 176ºF / 86ºC, measured with a digital instant-read thermometer), then whisk in a zigzag motion until frothy, about 30 seconds.
4. Pour the matcha liquid over the milk. Stir and enjoy!
