Instructions
- You will be needing a wide shallow cup for mixing matcha with water. Take a shallow cup or bowl, add in matcha. If you see your matcha to be lumpy you can sift it using a small sieve directly into the cup. Add in warm water and use a small whisk or a traditional bamboo matcha whisk to mix it well. This method helps with the froth in the matcha tea and makes it evenly combined.
