Ginger Matcha Latte
To celebrate launching our Matcha Lip Balm, we are sharing some of our favourite matcha recipes, starting with Ginger Matcha. This blend is a perfect pick-me-up, with the added bonus of immune-boosting benefits!
Ingredients:
Matcha (ceremonial grade)
Almond milk
Fresh ginger root
Maple syrup or coconut sugar (optional)
Instructions:
Boil water and let it cool to around 80°C. Soak your whisk (chasen) to soften it and prevent brittleness. Dispose of the water.
Ensure your matcha bowl is dry, then sieve 1 scoop of matcha into it to remove clumps.
Add about 60 ml of hot water to the matcha and whisk in a “W” motion until frothy.
Add a splash or two of fresh ginger juice (be mindful—fresh ginger can be fiery!).
Warm almond milk in a pan, then pour it into the matcha mixture. Use a handheld frother for a creamy texture.
Sweeten with maple syrup or coconut sugar if you prefer a slightly sweet matcha.
We make our ginger shots fresh using the Nama J3. (Use the code HONEY HOUSE for a discount.)
