Strawberry Cold Foam

Notes
Expert Tips
- To make this with regular dairy, simply swap the almond milk for regular whole milk or use half and half instead of Nutpods!
- If you don’t want to use almond milk you can choose any non-dairy option like coconut milk or cashew milk. Use soy milk or oat milk for a nut-free option.
- You can use a handheld frother or a matcha whisk set for this recipe. You’ll also need a high-powdered blender for the cold foam.
- Choosing the right matcha is important! There are 2 different grades of matcha: ceremonial matcha and culinary grade. I recommend using ceremonial grade matcha powder as it is the highest quality, has better flavor, and is less bitter.
Serving & Storage Tips
This strawberry matcha tea is best served immediately after making it. I don’t recommend storing it, as it will not be as good as when served fresh.Nutrition
