HOW TO MAKE Toasted Coconut Matcha Latte

Ingredients:

  • 3/4 tsp. matcha powder
  • 1 tbsp. hot water
  • 2 tbsp. Torani Sugar Free Coconut Syrup
  • 1 cup warm coconut (almond, or milk of choice)
  • Toasted coconut chips (for garnishing)

STEP-BY-STEP INSTRUCTIONS:

  1. Sift the matcha powder into a mug. This helps to break up any clumps and makes it easier to mix later.
  2. Stir in the hot water until the matcha is smooth. A whisk works best for this but a spoon will do if you don’t have one.
  3. Then, stir in the Torani Sugar Free Coconut Syrup. This adds a nice sweetness to the drink.
  4. Add the warm milk to a small jar or a container, and shake until it is frothy. If you have a handheld milk frother, you can use that instead to create the foam topping.
  5. Once your desired froth consistency is achieved, pour the froth into the matcha mixture.
  6. Serve your latte with toasted coconut chips on top for some extra crunch and flavor.

HOW TO SERVE Toasted Coconut Matcha Latte

Toasted Coconut Matcha Latte is best enjoyed warm, but you can also let it cool and serve it over ice for a refreshing iced version. This drink is perfect for enjoying with breakfast or as a treat in the afternoon. Pair it with a light snack, like a banana or a piece of toast, to make it a complete meal. It can also be served at parties or gatherings as a unique beverage option.

STORAGE & FREEZING : Toasted Coconut Matcha Latte

If you have leftover latte, you can store it in the fridge for up to 2 days. Simply pour it into a sealed container and place it in the fridge. When you are ready to enjoy it again, give it a good shake and warm it up in the microwave or on the stove. This will help revive the frothiness. However, it’s best to consume it fresh for the best flavor and texture. Freezing is not recommended as the consistency may change when thawed, which affects the taste and texture of your latte.
