Iced Matcha Green Tea Latte #DairyMonth


Our week long celebration of #DairyMonth continues! This event is co-hosted by From Gate to Plate and Cooking With Carlee.  We are putting together our best recipes using cow milk, goat milk, butter, cream, and cheeses.  We can't wait to share them with you!

Day 2 Recipes...


My Offering...
This iced matcha green tea latte is one of my favorite sweet treats. Okay, admittedly, I don't have much of a sweet tooth. But I love making this for an easy "dessert" on a busy weeknight.


Just a quick note about Matcha. Matcha is "powdered tea." Unlike drinking other tea when you infuse the tea leaves in water and, then, strain out the leaves, with matcha, you are drinking the finely powdered leaves whisked into hot water. So, spring for the best quality of matcha that you can. There's culinary grade and ceremonial grade. I use ceremonial grade if I'm whisking and drinking; I use culinary grade for baking and cooking.

Ingredients makes 1 latte

  • 1 t matcha green tea powder
  • 1 C milk
  • 1 t honey
  • Also needed: a lidded mason jar, whisk



Procedure 
In a glass jar, place the matcha and the honey. Pour in the milk and stir with a spoon to break up the clumps as best you can. Place the lid on the jar and shake. The more you shake, the more froth will be developed.  Open the lid and give another stir to completely dissolve the matcha. You can pour the latte into another glass if you like...I prefer to have fewer glasses to wash! Enjoy.

This month the French Winophiles group is looking at affordable wines from Burgundy.  Host Cindy of Grape Experiences wrote: "Burgundy, or Bourgogne, is known for its wines of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir... as well as Aligote, Gamay, Sauvignon, César, Pinot Beurot, Sacy, Melon in lesser quantities. Many of the well-known wines are quite expensive, but there are plenty of values to be found."

You're Invited: Take a (Virtual) Hawaiian Holiday with #FoodNFlix

Fall Break, Oahu, October 2017 For June, I am hosting  Food'N'Flix , the movie-watching, food-making group rallied by Heather of  All Roads Lead to the Kitchen . This week, my older son was supposed to graduate from high school and we were supposed to leave on a family vacation to the Big Island. But, as enter our eleventh week of being sheltered in place to flatten the curve of the coronavirus, all of our summer plans were canceled, including this long-planned graduation trip to Hawaii. Boo. I understand the need to self-isolate. And we are abiding by the social distancing guidelines put in place by our state. But, boo, nonetheless.
