Ingredients
Method
Make Puree
- Add sliced mango (2-3 oz) and sugar to a blender. Blend until smooth.
- Set aside 1/4 cup for the drink.
Whisk Matcha
- In a bowl, add matcha powder and room temperature water to form a paste.
- Add 40 ml hot water (80°C or 76°F). Whisk vigorously in a rapid "M," "W," or "Z" motion for 30 seconds to dissolve clumps and build a base.
- Lift the chasen slightly and whisk slightly slower for 20 seconds.
- Skim the surface lightly for 10 seconds to break large bubbles and finish the foam.
Assembly
- Pour mango puree at the bottom of a glass, then add ice.
- Pour milk, then slowly pour the whisked matcha on top.
- Stir well before enjoying.
Notes
Do not use boiling water for the matcha. Use a bamboo whisk (chasen) for the best froth. Store extra puree in the fridge.
