Preparation Time: 5 minutes
Cooking Time: 5 minutes
Yield: 1 serving
Ingredients
1 teaspoon high-quality Matcha powder
1 tablespoon hot water (not boiling, around 175°F)
1 cup of milk (almond, soy, oat, or cow’s milk – choose as per your preference)
1-2 teaspoons of honey or sweetener of choice
1-2 drops of high-quality, edible CBD oil
Instructions
- Begin by sifting your matcha powder into a bowl to remove any clumps. It’s these small details that can make all the difference.
- Add the hot water to the matcha in the bowl. Remember, it should not be boiling but merely hot. Use a whisk to vigorously blend the matcha and water. Your goal is to achieve a smooth, frothy consistency, with the matcha fully dissolved.
- Warm the milk in a small saucepan on medium heat until hot but not boiling. If you prefer a frothier latte, use a frothier or a whisk to froth the milk until it’s to your desired consistency.
- Stir in the sweetener of your choice into the hot milk, adjusting to your desired sweetness.
- Now for the pièce de resistance: carefully stir in the CBD oil. You may adjust the amount based on your personal preference and the potency of your oil but remember – less is more when it comes to CBD.
- Pour the matcha mix into a serving mug, and gently add the hot, sweetened milk.
- Optional: if you’re feeling a little artistic, create a lovely latte art on top or simply dust a little matcha on top for color.
- Savor each sip, appreciating the blend of flavors and sensations.
