This is my absolute addiction at the moment, I have to have it everyday. Yes it has a touch of sugar, you can actually omit it if you prefer. As mentioned I am using cows milk at the moment, not my usual milk of choice, but I find the creaminess just adds to how delicious it is.
SYRUP
- 500 grams organic strawberries, chopped
- 200 grams organic raw sugar
- 120 grams water (for syrup)
TO ASSEMBLE
- 1/4 cup water at around 70–80°C (for matcha), so boil the water and let it cool for a few minutes **
- 1 tsp Forest Super Foods ceremonial grade matcha powder
- 3/4 cup whole milk (or non-dairy alternative)
- 2 tablespoons strawberry syrup (from above)
STEPS
1. Make the syrup: Combine 500g chopped strawberries with 200g raw sugar in a small saucepan. Stir, then let sit for a few minutes until the sugar starts to draw out the juices. Set over low-medium heat and stir until the sugar dissolves, then simmer until the strawberries soften and release their juice. Add a splash of water and continue cooking until slightly thickened. Turn off the heat and mash the strawberries with the back of a spoon.
2. Store the syrup in a jar in the fridge.
3. Whisk the matcha: In a small bowl, whisk 1 tsp ceremonial-grade matcha powder with ¼ cup boiling water until smooth, frothy, and free of clumps.
4. Assemble the latte: Fill a glass with ice. Add 2 tbsp strawberry syrup, pour in ¾ cup whole milk (or a non-dairy alternative), then top with the whisked matcha. Stir to combine and enjoy.
** Matcha is usually whisked with water that's around 70–80°C rather than fully boiling, since boiling water can make it taste bitter.
