Iced Lavender Matcha Latte

Filled with uplifting flavors, this drink is ideal for warm days or a cozy afternoon indoors. Here’s how to make your own Iced Lavender Matcha Latte at home.

Iced Lavender Matcha Latte ### Ingredients:

1 tablespoon culinary-grade matcha powder
1 cup milk of your choice (dairy or non-dairy)
1 tablespoon dried lavender buds
1 tablespoon honey or sweetener of choice (adjust to taste)
1/2 cup hot water
Ice cubes

Instructions:

Start by making the lavender syrup. In a small saucepan, bring 1/2 cup of water to a gentle boil. Add the dried lavender buds and honey (or sweetener) to the boiling water. Allow it to simmer for about 10 minutes to extract the flavors.
Afterward, strain the mixture to remove the lavender buds and let the syrup cool.
In a bowl, whisk together the culinary-grade matcha powder with a small amount of hot water (about 2 tablespoons) to create a smooth paste. Make sure there are no lumps for the best texture.
In a glass, combine the cooled lavender syrup with the milk of your choice. Stir well to blend the flavors.
Add ice cubes to the glass, filling it just below the rim. Pour the milk-lavender mixture over the ice.
Finally, gently pour your matcha paste over the milk-lavender blend. For a beautiful ombre effect, pour slowly.
Give it a quick stir before sipping to combine all the flavors, or leave it layered for a stunning presentation!

Enjoy your homemade Iced Lavender Matcha Latte as a refreshing treat, whether you’re taking a moment to relax or hosting friends. This beverage is bound to impress with its unique flavors and gorgeous appearance. Cheers!
