Print Recipe
Prep Time:10 minutes

Equipment

  • Handheld frother or whipping blender

Ingredients

Sakura cheese foam

  • 1 Tbsp. Cream cheese
  • 1 Tbsp. Whipping cream
  • 1 Tbsp. Milk
  • 1 tsp. Sakura powder
  • 1 tsp. Sugar Feel free to skip if your sakura powder is sweetened

Matcha latte

Instructions

  • Combine cream cheese, whipping cream, milk, and sakura powder in a small container. If your cherry blossom powder is unsweetened, feel free to add some sweetener to taste. Mix everything together until you have a fluffy and smooth texture.
  • Begin by making a concentrated matcha mixture by whisking together the matcha powder (and optional sweetener) with a small amount of warm water. This will help prevent any clumping. Once you have a smooth mixture, add the rest of the water and continue whisking until frothy. You can use a matcha whisker or a handheld frother for this.
  • pour the matcha mixture into a mug filled with milk. Finally, top the matcha milk with a generous amount of sakura cheese foam. You can use a spoon or piping bag to create a beautiful presentation.

Notes

  • If your cheese foam turns too stiff to pour it, add a little amount of milk.
    If on the contrary your cheese foam is too runny, increase the amount of cream cheese.
  • You can have the matcha latte hot or cold
  • If making your matcha latte warm, I recommend whipping the cheese cream on the stiffer side, so it doesn’t melt as soon as you pour it.
  • Feel free to switch the sugar for your sweetener of choice (I usually use xylitol or erythritol for this recipe).
