Ingredients

1 cup fresh strawberries hulled and sliced
1 cup almond milk unsweetened or sweetened based on preference
2 tablespoons matcha green tea powder high quality for best flavor
2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup for vegan option
1 cup ice cubes for serving
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract optional for additional flavor
salt a pinch to enhance sweetness
1 cup water for matcha preparation

Instructions

In a blender, combine the fresh strawberries and honey. Blend until smooth to create a strawberry puree. If desired, strain the puree through a fine mesh sieve to remove seeds for a smoother texture.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the matcha green tea powder and warm water until fully dissolved and frothy. Add a pinch of salt to enhance the flavors.
Fill two glasses with ice cubes, then pour the strawberry puree evenly into each glass, filling them about halfway.
Slowly pour the matcha mixture over the back of a spoon into each glass to create a layered effect. This allows the matcha to sit on top of the strawberry puree.
If desired, mix the almond milk with vanilla extract and drizzle it gently into the glasses for an added layer of flavor without disturbing the layers too much.
Serve immediately with a straw or spoon for stirring, and enjoy the beautiful presentation and refreshing taste!

Notes

Tip 1: Use chilled ingredients for a more refreshing drink.
Tip 2: You can prepare the strawberry puree and matcha mixture ahead of time and store them separately in the fridge.
Variation: Add a layer of coconut milk for a tropical twist.
