February Sipdown Challenge Prompt – drink a latté or milk tea
Time for a pick me up! I have been making brownies and chocolate covered strawberries for Valentine’s tonight. I wanted a little something before starting to cook supper.
I thought I had used a bit too much matcha but I really would have liked even more. I put about four little scoops of matcha in a matcha bowl, added a tiny amount of cold water and made a smooth paste, added a small amount of sugar and whisked some more until it was perfectly smooth, and it was gorgeous. The color was a bright and intense green. I scraped the matcha bowl contents into a glass of milk (metal Boroux cup) and used an Aerolatte to mix it all together. It didn’t last very long at all. The froth was excellent.
The chocolate covered strawberries wouldn’t all fit into the container so I took one for the team and ate one. It was so perfect with my latte. I almost always have plain whisked matcha with a sweet little something like a truffle, so why not the latté as well?
