Heat on low for 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally until thick and creamy.

For Iced Version:
-
Pour over ice in a tall glass.

🌸 Pro Tips for a Creamy Latte
-
Don’t overcook the oats. You want a smooth pourable consistency, not thick porridge.
-
Use barista-style oat milk for a silkier texture.
-
Sweeten last. Matcha and oats have natural sweetness; taste first.
-
Add a touch of vanilla extract for a warm aroma.
-
Whisk matcha separately — never add the powder directly to hot milk.
🥣 Flavor Variations
-
Banana Matcha Latte: Blend in half a ripe banana for natural sweetness.
-
Coconut Oat Matcha: Replace half the oat milk with coconut milk.
-
Apple Cinnamon Matcha: Add apple puree and cinnamon for cozy autumn flavor.
-
Protein Boost: Add ½ scoop of unflavored protein powder for a full breakfast drink.
-
Iced Breakfast Latte: Chill your blend overnight for a refreshing start.
🧽 Cleaning and Care
-
Rinse your Chawan and Chasen right after use with warm water.
-
Avoid soap on bamboo — let it dry naturally.
-
Wash saucepan or blender immediately to avoid oat residue.
-
Store matcha airtight to keep its color and flavor vibrant.
