How To Make Matcha Green Tea Frappuccino?
- Blend everything: Add milk, ice, vanilla ice cream, honey (or agave), and matcha powder to a blender. Blend until smooth.
- Adjust texture: If too thick, add more milk. If too thin, add more ice and blend again.
- Serve and enjoy: Pour into a glass, top with whipped cream, and serve immediately!
Recipe Tips:
- Use high-quality matcha: Good matcha powder makes a big difference! Choose ceremonial-grade matcha for a smoother and less bitter taste, or culinary-grade matcha for a stronger flavor.
- Blend for the right texture: To get a smooth and creamy frappuccino, blend on high speed for at least 30–45 seconds. If it’s too icy, add a little more milk. If it’s too thin, add extra ice and blend again.
- Chill your glass before serving: A cold glass keeps your frappuccino from melting too fast. Just place the glass in the freezer for 5–10 minutes before pouring in your drink.
- Dissolve matcha before blending: For a smoother texture, mix matcha with a little warm water first (about 1 tablespoon) before adding it to the blender. This helps prevent clumps.
- Sweeten to taste: If you like your frappuccino sweeter, add extra honey, agave, or vanilla syrup. Taste after blending and adjust as needed!
How To Store Leftovers?
Let the Matcha Green Tea Frappuccino sit until it reaches room temperature. Then, pour it into an airtight container and store it in the fridge for up to 2 hours. Stir well before drinking, as the ingredients may separate.
