Print Recipe

A quick and easy iced matcha latte recipe perfect for dorm rooms, delivering a creamy, refreshing drink with minimal equipment and simple ingredients.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 to 1½ teaspoons ceremonial grade matcha powder
  • 1 to 2 teaspoons honey, agave syrup, or simple syrup (adjust to taste)
  • 1 cup (240 ml) milk of choice (whole, oat, almond, or coconut milk)
  • ½ cup (120 ml) ice cubes
  • 2 to 3 tablespoons (30–45 ml) hot water, just off the boil
  • Optional: splash of vanilla extract or pinch of cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Heat 2 to 3 tablespoons (30-45 ml) of water to just below boiling (around 175°F/80°C).
  2. Place 1 to 1½ teaspoons of matcha powder into a bowl or mug. Pour in the hot water.
  3. Whisk briskly in a zigzag motion using a small whisk, bamboo whisk, or fork until a smooth, vibrant green paste forms with no lumps (about 15-30 seconds).
  4. Stir in 1 to 2 teaspoons of sweetener while the matcha is still warm to dissolve completely.
  5. Fill a glass halfway with ice cubes (about ½ cup or 120 ml).
  6. Pour 1 cup (240 ml) of your preferred milk over the ice.
  7. Slowly pour the sweetened matcha mixture over the milk and ice. Stir gently to blend before sipping.

Notes

Use hot water just below boiling to avoid bitterness. Whisk vigorously in a zigzag motion to avoid clumps. Sweeten while warm for better dissolution. Use oat milk for creaminess or adjust milk type to preference. Large ice cubes melt slower and keep drink chilled longer. Matcha paste can be prepared ahead and refrigerated up to 24 hours.
