Adding the Strawberry Flavor
- For the strawberry flavor, add 2 tablespoons of strawberry puree or fresh strawberry syrup to the matcha and milk mixture. You can make your own strawberry puree by blending fresh or frozen strawberries until smooth, or use a store-bought strawberry syrup if you’re short on time. Stir the mixture gently to combine the strawberry with the matcha and milk. This creates a beautiful pink swirl that looks as delicious as it tastes!
- If you like your lattes a bit sweeter, feel free to add your sweetener of choice—such as honey, maple syrup, or a few drops of stevia—until it reaches your preferred level of sweetness. Stir well to ensure the sweetener is evenly mixed.
- Pour the completed strawberry matcha latte into a glass or mug. For an extra touch, you can top it with a few extra frothy milk bubbles or a small drizzle of strawberry syrup for decoration.
Serving Suggestions
- Serve the strawberry matcha latte hot for a cozy treat or let it cool and add ice for a refreshing iced latte during warmer months.
- If you’d like to add a little more texture or garnish, try topping the latte with whipped cream or a sprinkle of matcha powder or freeze-dried strawberries.
- This latte pairs perfectly with a light pastry, such as a scone or croissant, making it ideal for a morning breakfast or afternoon tea.
Notes
- If you prefer a vegan option, ensure that the milk you use is plant-based, and opt for a vegan sweetener like maple syrup or agave nectar.
- For a more intense strawberry flavor, try blending a few fresh strawberries into the milk before heating it, creating a more natural, fruit-forward version of the drink.
- Feel free to adjust the matcha-to-strawberry ratio to your liking. If you prefer a stronger matcha flavor, you can add an extra 1/4 teaspoon of matcha powder, or if you want a sweeter, fruitier latte, increase the strawberry puree or syrup.
