I’ve been enjoying the heck out of this matcha. It’s a vibrant forest green with a luscious, deep mossy flavor that makes for the perfect base for matcha lattes. Very robust and holds up well to milk and sugar. Outstanding for a budget matcha.
BTW, I might be late to it but this matcha latte preparation technique on TikTok, using only a handheld frothier, has been a real game changer

I do something similar but I shake it in a jar instead of using a frother. But you have to shake it with a little water first or the clumps won’t dissolve into the milk.
Breakaway Matcha has a video tutorial and used to sell the “pitcher” you see in their video, I think. Now they sell tall matcha cups, suitable for using the frother without lots of splash.
I sometimes get lumps if I just froth, so I do as Harney suggests and begin by making a matcha paste with a tiny amount of cool water, then add the milk or water and froth if using milk, whisk in a matcha bowl if using water.
I have also used a cocktail shaker! It works really well.

Yup, the mason jar/cocktail shaker bottle methods work well too. I like that you don’t have to heat up the water. Hot water sometimes brings out a fishy taste.
I settled on the frother as I’m prone to mishaps and lazy about cleanup.
