HOW TO MAKE A MATCHA LATTE
In this matcha latte recipe video we used the steam wand from an espresso machine to heat and texture the milk.
TIP - To make matcha latte art, you need the matcha tea in the bowl to be full body (Some weight) just like an espresso. To make full body matcha, you need at least 3 - 4 grams of matcha powder and just a small amount of water approx 50ml so that the matcha is more like a thin paste.
Use a good quality matcha powder if you want that fresh, vibrant green hue result.
