# What You'll Need:
→ Matcha Base
01 - 2 teaspoons matcha green tea powder
02 - 2 tablespoons hot water (about 175°F)

03 - 2 cups milk (dairy or plant-based alternative)
→ Sweetener
04 - 1–2 teaspoons honey, maple syrup, or sugar
# Directions:
01 - Sift the matcha powder into a bowl or mug to prevent lumps from forming during preparation.
02 - Add hot water and whisk briskly in a zigzag motion until the matcha is fully dissolved and a frothy layer forms on top.
03 - In a small saucepan, heat the milk over medium heat until steaming but not boiling. Alternatively, use a milk frother to heat and froth the milk.
04 - Divide the matcha mixture evenly between two mugs.
05 - Add sweetener to taste, stirring until dissolved.
06 - Gently pour the steamed milk over the matcha, holding back the foam with a spoon, then spoon the foam on top. Serve immediately.
