Cold Brew Matcha: Iced Perfection
Cold Brew Matcha offers a uniquely smooth, less bitter, and refreshing experience compared to its hot counterpart. By steeping ceremonial grade matcha in cold water, you unlock its vibrant flavor without the astringency often associated with traditional preparation. It's an invigorating and simple way to enjoy the health benefits of green tea.
Ingredients
- 2 tsp ceremonial grade matcha powder
- 1 cup cold filtered water
Instructions
- Sift 2 teaspoons of ceremonial grade matcha powder into a small bowl or jar to prevent clumps.
- Add about 2 tablespoons of cold filtered water to the matcha and whisk vigorously until a smooth paste forms. This helps dissolve the matcha fully.
- Gradually add the remaining 1 cup of cold filtered water, whisking until the matcha is fully incorporated and a light froth appears on top.
- Pour the cold brew matcha into a glass filled with ice cubes.
- Serve immediately and enjoy the refreshing taste! Optional: Add your favorite sweetener or a splash of milk.
Notes
Use ceremonial grade matcha for the best flavor. Adjust water quantity to taste. For a creamier drink, add a splash of your favorite milk or milk alternative. You can also sweeten with honey or agave. Store any leftover cold brew matcha in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
