Let’s Make It:

Prepare the following:

• 🍑 2 ripe plums (cut into small cubes)

• 🍯 10 grams of sugar

• 🍵 3–4 grams of ceremonial grade matcha

• 💧 60–70 ml hot water (around 80°C – not boiling)

• 🥛 150–200 ml milk (any kind — oat, almond, dairy)

• 🧊 Ice cubes (optional)

Steps to follow

Start with the plums. Chop them into small cubes and toss them into a frying pan with 10 grams of sugar. Cook on medium heat for about 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally. You’ll know it’s ready when it turns jammy and glossy — like a sweet little plum compote.

Once it’s done, let it cool down while you prep your matcha.

Sift 3–4 grams of ceremonial matcha into your bowl (no clumps allowed). Add 60–70 ml of hot water (around 80°C) and whisk like you mean it for about 1–2 minutes, until smooth, frothy, and gloriously green.

Now, time to assemble. Grab your glass and spoon in the cooled plum jam — that’s your fruity base. Add a handful of ice cubes (optional, but trust me, it looks and tastes better). Pour in 150–200 ml of milk, then gently top it off with your freshly whisked matcha.

Give it a gentle swirl, watch those dreamy green-and-purple layers mix, and take a sip.

You’ve just made a Matcha Plum Latte — creamy, tangy, and dangerously drinkable. 🍵💜✨
