Dalgona-Style Blue Matcha Latte

I like this beautiful drink iced, but you can also serve it warm. Just warm the milk and top with the whipped matcha. Superfine sugar works best, but if you don’t have it, just use regular sugar it will work. You can also use other sugars, such as coconut or monkfruit sweetener. Make sure your aquafaba is quite stiff before you add it in as it’s heavier. The recipe also works with green tea matcha.

  • 3 T aquafaba (or if not vegan, 1 egg white)

  • 1 T superfine sugar

  • 1 t blue matcha (butterfly pea flower powder)

  • 1 c milk, or to vegan-ize, use plant-based: coconut, oat, or almond milk

Whip the aquafaba using an electric mixer, hand mixer, or hand-held frother (I used an immersion blender with the whisk attachment). You could whisk this by hand as well, but it will take longer. Whisk vigorously until the aquafaba is frothy and pretty stiff. Add the sugar and continue to whisk until stiff peaks form.

Sift in the blue matcha powder and whisk until incorporated.

Add your choice of milk to a cup or glass and add ice. Top with the whipped matcha and serve.
