Sakura Base
- 2 tsp Sakura Cherry Blossom Powder from Matcha Oishii
- 50 ml hot water
Milk Mixture
- 200 ml milk (any variety: dairy or plant-based)
- 1 tsp vanilla syrup or sweetener of your choice
- Ice cubes (optional, for a frozen version)
- Prepare Sakura Powder: Place 2 teaspoons of sakura cherry blossom powder into a cup or mug. Add 50 ml of hot water and whisk thoroughly using a whisk, spoon, or electric mixer until the powder is fully dissolved with no lumps remaining.
- Warm the Milk: In a separate cup, warm 200 ml of milk to your preferred temperature. Alternatively, for an iced Sakura Latte, simply pour the milk cold without warming. Add 1 teaspoon of vanilla syrup or your chosen sweetener to the milk if you desire a sweeter drink.
- Combine Sakura Base with Milk: Pour the prepared sakura mixture into the milk. Stir gently and observe the beautiful pink hue developing, creating the sakura latte.
- Optional Final Touch: For a frothy texture, top with milk foam. If you prefer it cold, add ice cubes to the glass to make a refreshing frozen Sakura Latte.
Notes

- You can use any milk variety, including almond, oat, or soy milk, depending on your dietary preference.
- Vanilla syrup can be substituted with honey, agave, or any sweetener you like.
