2 oz high-quality white chocolate, chopped
1 tsp ceremonial grade matcha powder
1 tbsp hot water
1/2 tsp vanilla extract (optional)
Pinch of sea salt

- Sift the matcha powder into a small bowl to remove clumps.
- Add hot water to the matcha and whisk until smooth and frothy. Set aside.
- In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the milk and chopped white chocolate.
- Stir continuously until the white chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is hot but not boiling.
- Remove from heat and stir in the prepared matcha mixture, vanilla extract (if using), and a pinch of sea salt.
- Whisk everything together until smooth and frothy.
- Pour into mugs and serve immediately.
- Optional: Top with whipped cream or a sprinkle of matcha powder.
Notes
Use ceremonial grade matcha for the best color and flavor.
Use plant-based milk and dairy-free white chocolate for a vegan version.
Cool and serve over ice for an iced variation.
Add cinnamon or cardamom for a spiced twist.
Sweeten with honey or maple syrup if desired.
Froth with a milk frother or whisk vigorously for a café-style texture.
Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 2 days and reheat gently before serving.
