The Best (and Different) Ways to Drink Matcha

One of matcha’s quiet strengths is its versatility.
Whether you’re seeking balance, comfort, creativity, or a moment of calm,
there’s a way to enjoy matcha that fits naturally into your day.

Whisked Matcha (Usucha)

If you want maximum goodness—antioxidants, L-theanine, chlorophyll—go classic usucha (thin matcha). No frills, just pure tea.

Ingredients

  • 2 g ceremonial-grade matcha
  • 60 ml water at 60–80 °C

Steps

  1. Sift matcha into a wide bowl.
  2. Add water and whisk in a quick W/M motion for ~20 seconds until frothy 

Sparkling Matcha

Cold, bright, and fizzy. Cold whisking preserves the fresh, grassy notes and gives matcha a crisp twist. 

Ingredients

  • 3 g matcha
  • 30 ml hot water (60–80 °C)
  • 120 ml warm or frothed milk (dairy or plant)
  • Optional: a touch of agave or maple

Steps

  1. Sift matcha, add water, whisk smooth (no clumps).
  2. Pour in milk; sweeten to taste.

Matcha Latte

Smooth, creamy, and gently sweet—the latte balances bright green flavour with milk for a comfort sip. Not sure which milk? See Best Milk for Matcha Lattes.

Ingredients

  • 2 g matcha
  • 120 ml sparkling water
  • Ice, lemon slice or yuzu (optional)

Steps

  1. Whisk matcha directly with sparkling water until smooth and vibrant.
  2. Add ice and citrus if you like.
  3. Enjoy it. Optional: sweeten to taste
