Layered Hojicha and Matcha Latte

I absolutely adore their hojicha. Hojicha is roasted green tea that has less caffeine and is less bitter than other teas. I’ve had hojicha in a lot of different desserts, but making a latte out of these loose leaves is my favorite.

1. Steep 2 teaspoons of hojicha in 1 cup of hot water for 1–2 minutes.
2. Froth 130 mL of milk with a teaspoon of liquid sugar.
3. Pour the milk and honey mixture into a tall glass.
4. Slowly pour your hojicha tea to create the layers in the latte.

The roasted flavor of hojicha mixed with the warm, frothed milk really feels like a warm hug to me. One of my favorite drinks to make and easily impress any guests

1. Instead of hojicha mix in the above recipe, use 2 teaspoons of matcha in 1 cup of hot water and whisk them using a bamboo or electric whisk. The rest of the steps are the same as above, but here they are:
2. Froth 130 mL of milk with a teaspoon of liquid sugar.
3. Pour the milk and honey mixture into a tall glass.
4. Slowly pour your matcha tea to create the layers in the latte.
5. Enjoy!
