Questions you may have:
Where did you buy the matcha powder?
You can find the Ito En Culinary Matcha powder at your local Costco store. I found mine in Hawaii.
Where did you get the bamboo whisk?
I bought it as a set on Amazon. I went for the listing with the most positive reviews. The set didn’t come with the bamboo holder, but you can also find that on Amazon.
Why monk fruit sweetener and where did you get it?
I like using monk fruit as my sweetener of choice because it has zero calorie and you only need a little bit to sweeten I like using monk fruit as my sweetener of choice because it has zero calories and you only need a little bit to sweeten your drinks. It is also safe for people who have a medical condition as it has anti-inflammation properties, and it’s great for those who are on a keto diet. I also bought mine at my local Costco store.
Can I make this drink hot?
Yes, you can. Make the matcha mixture the same way. Heat the macadamia nut milk in a small saucepan or a kettle. Pour the hot milk into a mug and add your matcha mixture. Then stir and enjoy!
Why did you add sugar with the Matcha powder?
I saw a video tutorial about how to mix matcha powder with hot water without a bamboo whisk, and I learned to avoid the clumps by adding a little bit of sugar. The texture of the granules in the sugar helps dissolve the matcha powder better smoothly. I used to mix them with a milk frother when I didn’t have a bamboo whisk and it just became a habit. Plus, it’s one less step to take when making iced matcha drinks.
