Method
Bit the matcha with hot water (not boiling) with the foamer until there are no grumps and foam comes out.
With boiling water the bitter matcha: better at 80 ° C.
Fill a high glass of ice, add milk and syrup if you use it, and pour the matcha.
Prepare an espresso ("Espresso" recipe) and put it very slowly on the back of a spoon to keep it floating on.
Serve it in three layers and remove it when drinking.
Tips and warnings
- A clear and fruity nut combines better with the vegetable notes of the matcha than a very dark one.
- It has tea and coffee caffeine: consider it if you take it in the afternoon.
