INGREDIENTS
1 cup Seeds of Wellness Chia Milk
1 teaspoon high-quality matcha powder
1 tablespoon hot water (just below boiling, about 175°F)
1 to 2 teaspoons honey, maple syrup, or agave nectar (optional, for sweetness)
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
INSTRUCTIONS
Prepare the Matcha Paste: Sift the matcha powder into a small bowl to remove lumps. Add the hot water and whisk vigorously with a bamboo whisk or fork until a smooth paste forms.
Heat the Chia Milk: Pour Seeds of Wellness Chia Milk into a small saucepan and warm over low to medium heat, stirring occasionally. Avoid boiling to preserve its creamy texture and nutrients.
Combine: Pour the warmed chia milk into your favorite mug. Add the matcha paste and stir or whisk until fully combined.
Sweeten: Add honey, maple syrup, or agave nectar for sweetness, along with the vanilla extract, if desired.
Optional Top Layer: While chia milk doesn’t froth in the traditional sense, a light whisk or blending can create a subtle creamy texture. For an even smoother finish, garnish with a sprinkle of matcha powder.
Serve: Enjoy warm, or try an iced version by chilling the chia milk and serving over ice.
PRO TIPS
For an iced version, chill the chia milk before combining it with the matcha paste.
Flavor enhancements. Add a pinch of cinnamon or a drop of almond extract for a unique twist.
