Cherry Vanilla Syrup
-
Add cherry juice, sugar, water and whole cherries in a pot. Cook down on low heat until the cherries become tender and all the sugar has been dissolved (about 3-5 minutes). Use a spatula to roughly break up the cherry pieces. The mixture shouldn’t bubble, so remove from heat as needed. Once combined, add vanilla bean paste and stir in.
Assemble the Cherry Vanilla Matcha Latte
-
Prepare a glass with ice and heat water to 175F. Sift matcha into a bowl then whisk until smooth and no clumps remain. To the glass, add syrup, milk and top off with matcha. Stir and enjoy.
- Using ceremonial-grade matcha ensures a smooth, non-bitter flavour and vibrant colour. Like I mentioned above, I use Frauth Matcha.
- Avoid using boiling water for matcha, as it can scorch the powder and result in bitterness.Â
- Adjust the amount of cherry vanilla syrup to suit your personal taste preferences.
- Buy a heart shaped ice cube tray to make cute little cherry juice ice cubes to top your latte with! They’re super cute.
