I finished off the matcha sample I got in the GCTT. This time I followed this latté recipe that I found on Red Leaf Tea’s website:

I didn’t quite have enough of the sample left to make up a tablespoon so I substitute with some plain matcha. The end result was really good – the flavour wad a bit muted, thanks to my additions and possibly the age of the sample, but I really could taste the raspberry and hint of that boozy-chocolate truffle flavour. I’v got a couple matcha samples from Red Leaf Tea kicking around so I’ll have to try out this recipe on them as well.
