Ingredients:
| 1 teaspoon | (2 scoops) matcha powder |
| 1 1/2 tablespoon | 1-1/2 water |
| 1 teaspoon | raw honey, or more to taste |
| 1/4 teaspoon | vanilla bean paste |
| 1/2 cup | whole milk |
| 1/4 cup | plus 2 tablespoons heavy cream |
Directions:
Place the matcha powder in a deep bowl or mug. Heat the water to 160ºF (70ºC) and pour over the matcha powder. Use a matcha whisk to first bury all the powder under the water, then whisk vigorously in a back-and-forth motion until the matcha is completely dissolved.
Add the honey and vanilla bean paste and whisk until incorporated.
Heat the milk and cream in a small pan set over medium-low heat. The milk/cream should be between 140 and 160ºF (60-70ºC). Froth the milk/cream. Pour over the dissolved matcha.
