Dalgona Matcha Latte
A creamy twist on the viral Dalgona trend, this matcha latte features a fluffy whipped matcha topping over iced milk. It’s earthy, lightly sweet, and so satisfying to make at home.
Ingredients
- 1 tsp matcha powder sifted
- 2 tbsp heavy whipping cream or aquafaba for vegan
- 1–2 tsp sugar or sweetener of choice
- 3/4 cup milk of choice
- ice cubes
Instructions
- Sift the matcha powder into a chilled mixing bowl to avoid clumps.
- Add cream and sugar to the bowl with the matcha.
- Whip using a hand frother, whisk, or electric mixer until soft peaks form. This takes about 1-3 minutes.
- Pour milk into a glass over ice, leaving room at the top.
- Spoon the whipped matcha on top of the milk.
- Stir gently before drinking, or leave layered for presentation.
Notes
- For a dairy-free version, use aquafaba or coconut cream instead of heavy cream.
- Adjust sweetness to taste—some matchas are naturally more bitter.
- Add vanilla or cinnamon to the milk for extra flavor.
- Double the recipe for a larger glass or a second serving.
