Iced Matcha Latte

Ingredients

• ½ cup whole milk
• 2½ teaspoons matcha
• 2 teaspoons sugar

Steps

1. In a large heatproof glass measuring cup, microwave the milk on high for about 45 seconds, until very hot but not boiling; alternatively, heat it in a small saucepan over medium heat. Carefully use an immersion blender on medium speed, moving its blade up and down through the milk for about 30 seconds, until foamy. Vigorous whisking is another option.
2. Put the matcha, sugar and ½ cup water together in a cocktail shaker filled with ice. Cover and shake hard for 30 seconds, until the shaker's exterior is very cold and the latte is frothy. Pour into a tall glass filled with ice, using a cocktail strainer or slotted spoon to keep back the ice while letting foam and small ice chips through. Finish by topping it off with the frothy milk.
