and without lumps.
• Matcha spoon: This special spoon makes it easy to measure the correct amount of matcha.
• Sieve: Helps to make the powder extra fine and achieve a smooth consistency.
• Matcha bowl: Here, the matcha is first whisked separately.
• Milk frother: This makes the milk wonderfully creamy and airy.
• Glass or mug: This is where all the ingredients are combined at the end to create an aromatic Matcha
Latte.

• 1 teaspoon matcha powder
• approx. 150 ml hot water (about 80 °C, not boiling)

  4. bamboo whisk in quick zigzag motions until a fine foam forms.

Water that is too hot

Whether it's matcha or matcha latte, the water temperature must not exceed 80°C. Otherwise, the matcha powder will "burn," leading to a bitter taste.

Poor frothing

There's a good reason why traditional matcha preparation is a meditative ceremony. If you don't take enough time to whisk it, lumps and an uneven texture can form.

Quality of the matcha powder

Matcha's desirable umami flavor comes from the quality of the powder. For excellent aroma, preferably buy organic matcha.
