How to Make the Perfect Matcha Latte at Home

If you love matcha, nothing beats a smooth, vibrant latte you can make yourself at home. With Maison Matcha’s premium Uji ceremonial matcha, you can create a café-quality drink in minutes — no added sugar, just pure flavour, health benefits, and indulgence.

Whether you’re new to matcha or a seasoned enthusiast, this guide will show you how to whisk, froth, and balance flavours to make the perfect matcha latte, hot or iced.

Choosing the Right Matcha

The first step to a great latte is Maison Matcha’s premium ceremonial matcha:

  • Original Ceremonial Matcha: Vibrant green, finely ground, smooth, and rich in antioxidants — perfect for a traditional matcha latte.
  • Sugar-Free Flavoured Ceremonial Matcha: Our Strawberry, Vanilla, and Caramel powders are subtly flavoured to complement the premium matcha without adding sugar, so you get all the colour, taste, and health benefits of ceremonial matcha in every cup.

Tip: Use fresh Maison Matcha powder and weigh your matcha for the most consistent, vibrant latte every time.


Signature Maison Matcha Latte Recipe

For matcha lovers, our signature recipe delivers a perfectly balanced latte:

Ingredients:

  • 3g matcha powder (measured on a small scale for precision)
  • 30ml warm water (around 70°C, not boiling)
  • 140ml full cream or almond milk

Steps:

  1. Preheat your bamboo whisk: Place your bamboo whisk in warm water for a few seconds to soften the tines — this prevents breakage and helps create smoother froth.

2. Sift the matcha into a bowl or cup.

3. Add warm water (70 to 80 degrees C)

4. Whisk vigorously with the bamboo whisk in a W or M motion until smooth and frothy — this is the only tool we recommend for an authentic ceremonial latte.

5. Add frothed milk and stir gently to combine.

Pro Tip: Using a small scale to weigh your matcha ensures consistency and a perfectly balanced latte every time.


Frothing Your Milk

Milk adds creaminess and balances the matcha’s natural earthiness:

  • Hot Latte: Heat milk to around 60–65°C and froth until creamy.
  • Iced Latte: Whisk matcha first, then pour over chilled milk and ice.

Pro Tip: We recommend full cream or almond milk for the creamiest, smoothest latte that complements the matcha flavour.


Flavour Tips for the Perfect Latte

Maison Matcha’s flavoured powders are subtle and sugar-free, so you can enjoy all the benefits of ceremonial matcha with a natural twist:

Adjust the milk-to-matcha ratio to taste — more milk for creaminess, less for a stronger matcha flavour.


Health Benefits of Your Latte

Using ceremonial Uji matcha makes your latte not just delicious but healthy:

  • Packed with antioxidants (EGCG) to support metabolism and skin health
  • Contains L-theanine for calm, focused energy without jitters
  • Sugar-free flavoured powders preserve all the natural benefits of matcha

Whether hot or iced, your Maison Matcha latte supports energy, focus, and wellness — all in one beautiful cup.
