Here's how to make a matcha latte the proper way, using real matcha tea & milk. One matcha latte will provide you with 3 x vitamin C than a glass of OJ, at least 4 x the antioxidants of a green tea- as well as boosting energy levels and helping with clarity of mind and concentration.
Make your matcha your way with two easy-to-follow methods below, depending on what the moment calls for. Our Matcha Latte Magic Whisk is perfect for busy lives & hectic mornings that don’t allow for the time to complete the full ritual. Meanwhile, the traditional bamboo whisk method gives you an opportunity for true mindfulness & calm.
All the recipe details are below, along with a how-to video taking you through the steps. You can't go wrong.
Magic Whisk Matcha Latte:
Serves: 1
What you will need:
- Matcha Latte Magic Whisk
- 1 Perfect Matcha Teaspoon of Matcha
- 250ml milk (we love oat or almond milk)
- Teaspoon of vanilla syrup (optional)
What to do:
- First add 250ml of your chosen milk to your Matcha Latte Magic Whisk and press the power button.
- Sprinkle 1 Perfect Matcha Teaspoon or ½ tsp of matcha over your milk as it spins in your Magic Whisk. By gently sprinkling the matcha over the milk as it spins you can achieve the best results & avoid any clumping.
- After you have sprinkled in your matcha you can then add 1 teaspoon of your vanilla syrup.
- Place the lid on top of your machine and watch the magic happen.
- Pour into your favourite mug & enjoy!

Bamboo Whisk Matcha Latte:
Serves: 1
What you will need:
- 1 Perfect Matcha Teaspoon of Matcha
- 100ml 80° water
- 100ml milk (we love oat or almond milk)
- Teaspoon of vanilla syrup (optional)
What to do:
- Add 1 Perfect Matcha Teaspoon of Matcha to your mug / cup.
- Add a little 80° water (If you don’t have a fancy kettle just add a splash of cold water before you add the hot) and whisk well ensuring you get rid of any clumps. The best way of doing this, and the traditional way, is to use a bamboo matcha whisk - but you can also use a battery powdered whisk too.
- When smooth, top up the cup to 1/2 full with 80 degree water. To enjoy as a hot tea latte, follow next step.
- Add in 1 teaspoon of vanilla syrup to 100ml of milk, gently heat and froth it!
- Add your milk to your tea, stirring as you go and ensuring you get a nice, big dollop of frothy milk on the top. Sprinkle a little matcha on the top for a cute finish. (To enjoy cold, fill a glass half full with ice, pour over the hot matcha and top up with cold milk. With both hot and cold, we add two shots of vanilla for the best flavour.)
- Enjoy!
