Heart Art Matcha Latte is a sweet finish that is simpler than it looks. Sifting matcha before adding liquid is the single best way to avoid clumps. Serve it with green tea or a crisp, cold drink.

Method

  1. Sift the matcha into a bowl, add the hot water and whisk until smooth and frothy with no lumps.

  2. Steam or heat the milk to about 150 F and froth until glossy with fine bubbles.

  3. Pour the matcha into a cup, then pour the milk from a height before bringing the jug close to draw a heart in the foam.

  4. Sweeten with honey to taste and serve.

Chef's note

Mochi hardens in the fridge; store at room temperature and eat within a day.
