To make a cup of traditional matcha, start by sifting 1-2 teaspoons of matcha powder into a bowl to prevent clumps. Add about 2 ounces of hot water (not boiling, around 175°F or 80°C) and whisk vigorously with a bamboo whisk (chasen) in a zigzag motion until frothy. Gradually add more hot water to taste, typically around 6-8 ounces, and continue whisking until well combined. Enjoy your matcha plain or with a touch of sweetener, if desired.
