Ingredients
  

For Mango Puree
  • 2-3 oz sliced mango
  • 1-2 tbsp sugar
For Matcha
  • 4 grams matcha powder
  • 1 tsp of room temp water for paste
  • 40 ml hot water around 80°C or 176°F
For Assembly
  • 1/4 cup mango puree
  • 1 cup cold milk
  • ice
  • matcha

Method
 

Make Puree
  1. Add sliced mango (2-3 oz) and sugar to a blender. Blend until smooth.
  2. Set aside 1/4 cup for the drink.
Whisk Matcha
  1. In a bowl, add matcha powder and room temperature water to form a paste.
  2. 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.
  3. Lift the chasen slightly and whisk slightly slower for 20 seconds.
  4. Skim the surface lightly for 10 seconds to break large bubbles and finish the foam.
Assembly
  1. Pour mango puree at the bottom of a glass, then add ice.
  2. Pour milk, then slowly pour the whisked matcha on top.
  3. 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.
