Instructions

Prepare the Banana Base: Peel the ripe banana and place it into your blender. Add your choice of milk and blend on high speed for 30-60 seconds until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
Dissolve Matcha Powder: In a small cup, measure out the matcha powder. Add 2 to 3 tablespoons of hot water, then whisk thoroughly until the matcha powder is fully dissolved with no lumps remaining.
Combine the Mixture: Gradually pour the banana milk blend into the cup with the whisked matcha, stirring gently to create a smooth, harmonized latte.
Choose Serving Temperature: Decide if you prefer your latte hot or cold. Serve immediately either warmed or over ice.
Enjoy Your Latte: Savor the fresh aroma and creamy texture before sipping your delicious and energizing Banana Matcha Latte.

Notes

Using overripe bananas enhances the natural sweetness and creaminess of the latte without needing extra sweeteners.
For a vegan version, use plant-based milk such as almond, oat, soy, or coconut milk.
If you want a stronger matcha flavor, you can increase the matcha powder slightly but be mindful of bitterness.
Optional sweeteners include honey, agave syrup, maple syrup, or a low-calorie sweetener depending on your preference.
This recipe serves 2, so adjust ingredients accordingly for larger batches.
