Method

  1. Sift 2g of matcha into a bowl.

  2. Add 60ml of water at 75 degrees Celsius and whisk for 20 seconds.

  3. Steam 200ml of oat milk to a glossy texture at about 60 degrees Celsius.

  4. Stir 1 teaspoon of honey into the warm milk.

  5. Pour the matcha into a mug and top with the oat milk.

Pret uses oat milk by default. Whole milk works just as well if you prefer a thicker mouthfeel.Almanac note

Made it?

Keep the ratio that worked

The journal keeps this bowl (grams, water, temperature, and how it actually tasted) on this device, so the next one starts from what worked. It builds a 13-week heatmap as you go, and it is free and unlimited. Premium adds the tin cellar, so each bowl is costed against the tin you actually poured it from.
