How to Make Matcha Tea At Home

Put a quarter of a teaspoon of green tea powder into a cup.

Use a bamboo whisk (called a ‘chasen’) or small metal whisk to get rid of any lumps in the powder.

Leave water just boiled in a kettle aside for a few minutes to reduce the temperature of the water to below boiling point.

Pour a small amount of the hot water into the cup and use the whisk to mix the water and green tea powder together until all the lumps are dissolved.

Fill the cup with more hot water and serve (add more or less water depending on whether you want a weak or a strong cup of tea).
