Zusatztipps für die Zubereitung
Für eine eiskalte Variante gib die aufgelöste Matcha-Mischung in ein Glas voller Eiswürfel und gieße kalten, aufgeschäumten Haferdrink darüber. Verwende für eine besonders intensive grüne Farbe am besten zeremoniellen Matcha, und passe die Süße nach deinem Geschmack an.
Varianten und Anpassungen
Du kannst statt Haferdrink auch einen anderen pflanzlichen Milchersatz verwenden, doch Barista-Haferdrink sorgt für besonders viel Schaum und Cremigkeit. Wer es nicht ganz so süß mag, kann die Süße auch weglassen oder durch Dattelsirup ersetzen.
Serviervorschläge
Serviere deinen Matcha Oat Milk Latte gleich nach der Zubereitung für maximalen Schaum. Mit etwas zusätzlichem Matcha-Pulver bestreut und im Lieblingsbecher serviert, ist er ein echter Hingucker zum Frühstück oder als energiespendender Nachmittagssnack.
