  • Strain the ginger tea and add a small amount of it (about 2-3 tablespoons) to the matcha tea powder.
    Whisk the matcha with a matcha whisk or a battery-driven milk frother.
    If you don't have either of those, just use a spoon or shake it in a tightly closed container.

Notes

  • My favorite trick to peel ginger is using a spoon:
Peeling ginger with a spoon
  • If you don’t have a grater, you can make ginger tea by simmering sliced ginger in water for around 5-10 minutes
  • Feel free to use dried ginger tea instead of fresh ginger
