Gather Your Ingredients
To make this scrumptious Blueberry Matcha Latte, you'll need the following ingredients for a single serving:
• 66 fresh blueberries
• 2 grams of white sugar
• 100 grams of ice cubes
• 5 grams of matcha powder
• 60 cc (ml) of water
• 60 cc (ml) of milk
These ingredients are easy to find, and we bet you've already got most of them in your kitchen. Once you've gathered everything, you're ready to create this delicious drink that'll leave you feeling refreshed and energized!
Step 1: Prepare the Blueberry Syrup
The first step is to create the sweet blueberry syrup that will add flavor and color to your latte. Start by washing your blueberries thoroughly. Then, in a small pan, add the blueberries and sugar. Cook them over medium heat for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally to make sure they don't burn.
After the mixture has cooked down, let it sit for another 3 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together. This step gives the blueberries a lovely, syrupy texture that's perfect for our latte.
Step 2: Add Ice and Milk
Now, let's start assembling our latte! In a glass or a mug, add the blueberry syrup you just made. Then, drop in the ice cubes to give your drink a refreshing chill. After that, pour in 60 cc of milk. You can use any type of milk you like, whether it's dairy or a plant-based alternative like almond or oat milk. The milk adds creaminess and balances out the tartness of the blueberries.
Step 3: Prepare the Matcha
While the blueberry syrup is cooling down and the milk is settling into the glass, it's time to focus on the matcha. In a separate bowl, take 5 grams of matcha powder and mix it with 60 cc of water. Stir until the matcha powder is fully dissolved. This step is essential to ensure you don't have any lumps in your matcha, and it helps create a smooth, vibrant green liquid that will be the perfect addition to your latte.
Step 4: Combine the Blueberry Syrup and Matcha
Once your matcha is ready, carefully pour it over the milk and blueberry syrup mixture in the glass. Watch as the green matcha swirls with the purple blueberry syrup, creating a beautiful layered effect. It's not just tasty – it's also a feast for your eyes!
Step 5: Enjoy Your Blueberry Matcha Latte!
Finally, it's time to enjoy your creation! Grab a straw or a stirring stick and give your latte a good mix. This will help blend the flavors together into one perfect drink. Now, take a sip and feel the refreshing burst of blueberry sweetness paired with the earthy flavor of matcha. It's the perfect balance of flavors that'll leave you feeling satisfied and ready to take on the day.
We hope you're as excited as we are to try this Blueberry Matcha Latte! It's the perfect way to combine the benefits of matcha, which boosts energy and focus, with the antioxidants of blueberries.
