Iced Orange Matcha Latte

  1. Sift matcha into a cup or a small bowl and add hot water.
  2. Use a matcha whisk or a handheld milk frother to whisk the matcha until smooth and frothy.
  3. Add milk and orange syrup to a tall glass and fill it with ice.
  4. Pour the whisked matcha over the ice.
  5. Serve with a straw garnished with a slice of orange if desired. Enjoy!

Notes

Orange zest: the soft white part of the orange is bitter and should be cut off. The best way to do this is to zest the orange using a vegetable peeler.

Orange syrup: The syrup makes about 10 servings and lasts for up to 2 weeks. You can half the recipe if needed or freeze your leftovers.
