Ingredients
Instructions
Sift the matcha powder through a fine-mesh strainer into your bowl or a small bowl to remove static-induced lumps.
Add the 175°F hot water and agave syrup to the powder. Use a handheld frother to pulse and whisk until the mixture becomes a smooth, vibrant green concentrate with a thick foam on top.
Heat the milk in a small saucepan over medium heat until steam rises and small bubbles form at the edges, ensuring it does not reach a boil.
Tilt the saucepan and use the handheld frother for 20 seconds to create micro-foam, aiming for a texture similar to wet white paint.
Pour the hot milk into the matcha concentrate while holding back the thickest foam with a spoon. Stir gently to combine, then top with the remaining dollop of foam and a pinch of sea salt.
