Matcha is a bright green powder made from finely ground-up green tea leaves and has an earthy, vegetal flavor. It’s a traditional Japanese tea that is typically mixed with water or milk. This whipped, sweet and fluffy take on the matcha latte is a fun way to bring some cafe magic into your own kitchen.

Step 1

Combine the sugar and water over low heat. Cook until it becomes a hot syrup.

Step 2

Separate egg whites, then whip them for about five minutes until they form soft peaks.

If you’re using chickpea water, drain a can of chickpeas and whisk the water until it starts to thicken and create peaks.

Step 3

Combine your syrup into your egg white or chickpea mixture and whisk until it reaches a meringue texture.
