Ingredients · 1 glass
- 3 g matcha
- 40 ml water, at about 80 °C
- 40–60 ml warm milk
Steps
- 10 s
Sift 3 g into the bowl
Through a fine sieve so nothing clumps.
- 5 s
Add 40 ml at 80 °C
Pour in a thin stream around the powder.
- 15 s
Whisk the shot
Fast W strokes until smooth, then a few slow circles.
Add the milk
Pour in 40 to 60 ml of warm milk and stir once.
A cortado keeps the milk to roughly the same amount as the tea, so the matcha comes forward. It’s a good way to taste how a tin holds up in milk before you commit it to full lattes.
Make it yours
- Start with 40 ml of milk and add more until it balances.
