The Best Strawberry Matcha Latte Recipe
Strawberry Cloud Matcha Latte by Sharon Hsu of sparklecakerie.com
Hi friend, ٩(^ᗜ^ )و ´-
If you're a matcha lover like Kat and I (matcha boys, you’re welcome too!), you'll flip over this Strawberry Cloud Matcha Latte recipe! 🍓🍵 Think of it as a sweet little escape to Tokyo in the spring, with the perfect balance of rich, earthy matcha and the fluffiest strawberry cream you can imagine. It's not too sweet, and the creamy texture? Chef's kiss, it's everything! -`♡´-
This drink has become one of my favorites because it's gorgeous, Instagram-worthy, and ready in just 10 minutes! I've been having so much fun experimenting with matcha drinks lately, and I had to share this one. Originally, I tried whipping up some plant-based milk to create a fluffy matcha foam, but it... totally failed (oops!). It’s okay because when one door closes, another one opens to this dreamy strawberry cloud cream instead, and it was a game-changer! 🙌
Oh, and if you're into whipped drinks, you can try a matcha dalgona spin! Whip matcha and heavy cream together for a super fluffy, indulgent topping that’s just as pretty and delicious. It’s another fun way to enjoy matcha and adds a wow factor to your drink!
For the matcha, trust me, using good-quality matcha is the key to getting that beautiful green and perfect umami flavor.
So go ahead and treat yourself to this pretty drink, you deserve it!
Love,
Sharon(づ๑•ᴗ•๑)づ♡
THIS RECIPE IS GLUTEN-FREE. To make this VEGAN, substitute the heavy cream with coconut milk for the strawberry cloud foam, and please use a plant-based milk such as oat, coconut, almond, soy, or rice milk.
The Best Strawberry Matcha Latte Recipe
Hi friend,
Looking for a fun, Instagram-worthy drink that’s ready in just 10 minutes? Say hello to this Strawberry Cloud Matcha Latte! I’ve been totally obsessed with experimenting with matcha drinks lately, and after trying all sorts of trends, this one is at the top of my list of favorites. The velvety, sweet strawberry cream adds the fluffiest touch that blends beautifully into the slightly bitter, earthy matcha latte. It’s the perfect balance and just the right amount of not-too-sweet.
What makes this latte even better? You only need 5 simple ingredients to whip it up, making it a super easy treat! I personally love using an electric frother to mix the matcha, but if you don’t have one, you can shake it up in a heat-safe glass jar with a lid for a fun DIY alternative. The same goes for making the strawberry cream, just shake it up in a jar! It’s a simple and effective way to get the job done. If using the jar method, start with the matcha, pour it into your serving cup, then layer the strawberry cream on top.
Whichever method you choose, you’ll still create the prettiest drink that’s super yummy!
