    Ingredients and Variations

    Blueberries - You can use fresh or frozen blueberries. If using frozen blueberries, there's no need to thaw them.

    Matcha - Use good quality matcha powder. The ideal type is ceremonial-grade matcha, but this can be quite expensive - premium grade matcha is a good alternative.

    Milk - Use you preferred milk (e.g., dairy milk - semi-skimmed or whole or neutral-flavoured plant-based milk).

    Water - You'll need some hot water to whisk the matcha.

    Sugar - You'll need some sugar for the blueberry compote and extra sugar or any other type of sweetener for the latte.

    Ice Cubes - If you want to make an iced blueberry matcha latte!

    ingredients for blueberry matcha latte: fresh or frozen blueberries, milk, sugar, and matcha powder.

    How to Make Blueberry Matcha Latte

    Make the Blueberry Compote

    Wash and drain blueberries. If using frozen blueberries, use straight out of the freezer (do not thaw).

    Heat blueberries and sugar in a small saucepan. Simmer for 4-5 minutes until soft and juice is released. Use a fork or potato masher to lightly mash the blueberries to release more juice.

    For a smooth blueberry layer, blend the compote until smooth. Otherwise, you can use the blueberry compote with small chunks of blueberries.

    Whisk Matcha

    Place matcha powder in a small bowl.

    Carefully add hot water and whisk matcha (using a bamboo whisk or a small regular whisk) until all matcha is dissolved and no clumps remain.

    Assembly

    Divide blueberry compote between 2 large serving glasses. This should go in the bottom of the glass.

    Add ice for a cold latte.

    Fill each glass ¾ of the way with cold or warm milk.

    TIP: Place milk in a milk frother for a light and creamy texture!

    Add matcha (dissolved in water).

    Serve!

    Make it Vegan

    This Matcha Blueberry Latte is vegan-friendly.

    Make sure to use plant-based milk, ideally neutral flavoured (such as oat milk, rice milk, soy milk, or cashew milk), and a vegan-friendly sweetener.

    How to Serve

    Serve this Blueberry Matcha Latte as a breakfast or daytime snack. Matcha contains caffeine, so avoid serving this before going to bed.

    Pair this matcha latte with other matcha-themed desserts such as Matcha Neapolitan Cookies or Vanilla Matcha Marble Pound Cake or blueberry baked goods like Lemon Blueberry Yogurt Muffins or Lemon Berry Mascarpone Cake.

    Making Ahead

    This Blueberry Matcha Latte is best served freshly made.

    I don't recommend making this recipe ahead, but if you must, you can store your serving glasses (covered) in a refrigerator for a few hours.

    FAQs

    Does Blueberry Matcha Latte Contain Caffeine?

    Yes, matcha contains caffeine. This latte is best enjoyed in the morning and early afternoon.
