In summer, a tasty drink will make you feel more comfortable.
Let's keep it simple this weekend. Refreshing iced matcha milk for you.
Matcha milk (reference portion: 350ml capacity glass 2 cups)
Ingredients: 6g matcha powder, 240g purified water, 360g iced milk, 24g granulated sugar
Process:
1, first, pour matcha powder, purified water (or cold white water), granulated sugar into a glass of water.
2. Put the lid on the cup and shake the cup vigorously several times to become matcha water. Chill the water in the refrigerator (2-6 degrees Celsius) to turn it into iced matcha water.
3. Pour iced milk (whole milk or low-fat can be used. Low-fat milk is slightly denser than whole milk, making it easier to make a layered effect. But whole milk taste more mellow, so according to their own preferences to choose ha, milk in advance in the refrigerator after the chilled milk is iced milk).
4. Gently shake the chilled iced matcha water a few more times to avoid the matcha powder sinking to the bottom. Then very carefully and slowly pour it into the milk against the wall of the glass to achieve a layered effect (try to be careful and slow when pouring. If you pour too fast and too hard, there will be no layering oh).
TIPS:
1, first of all, this drink is characterized as "fresh and cold", so it is an iced drink. Matcha water and milk should be iced. Mix the matcha powder, water, and granulated sugar ahead of time so that the sugar has enough time to dissolve in the water during the chilling process. You can also just use room temperature water and put some ice cubes in it, or have pre-chilled ice water in the fridge to use directly, skipping the chilling process. But in that case the granulated sugar doesn't have enough time to dissolve in the water, so it's recommended to replace it with powdered sugar or fructose syrup.
2. Matcha powder is a difficult powder to dissolve, and if you mix it directly with water, it is difficult to mix it evenly and thoroughly with water in an ordinary way, and there will be a lot of small particles that can't be dissolved. Therefore, use the shaking method. Sports kettles, shaker cups, etc. are great tools for this. If none of these are available, an empty beverage bottle will also work.
3, every time you make matcha desserts there will be children who ask: "Why is my matcha powder not so green?" . The quality of different matcha powder varies very much, and the color difference will also be very big, so try to choose high quality matcha powder to achieve good taste and color.
4. Layering will make this drink very visually appealing. But when we drink it, it is actually better to stir it well and drink it later!
