A creamy, vibrant green latte with earthy matcha, smooth oat milk, and gentle honey sweetness.
# What You'll Need:
→ Matcha Mixture
01 - 1 teaspoon high-quality matcha green tea powder

03 - Warm oat milk in a small saucepan over medium heat or steam using a milk frother until hot but not boiling. Froth for added creaminess if desired.
04 - Pour warm oat milk over the prepared matcha base. Stir gently to combine flavors. Optionally garnish with a pinch of matcha powder. Serve immediately.
