Directions
- Make the Earl Grey Milk Tea. Pour a2 Milk® Lactose Free Full Cream into a jug, add tea bags, cover and refrigerate for 8 hours or overnight. Remove bags, squeeze gently, stir in honey until dissolved. Keep chilled until ready to assemble.
- Make the matcha. Sift 2 tsp ceremonial matcha into a bowl. Add 60ml hot water and whisk vigorously in a 'W' motion until frothy and lump-free.
- Make the matcha foam. Combine 60ml ice-cold a2 Milk® Lactose Free, 1/4 tsp sifted matcha, 1 tsp sweetener, and a pinch of sea salt in a tall glass. Insert a handheld frother just below the surface for 5–10 seconds until you hear a "hissing" sound and the volume doubles. Plunge the frother deeper, moving it up and down for 20 seconds until the foam is thick, glossy, and holds a soft peak.
- Assemble. Fill a glass with crushed ice. Pour the chilled Earl Grey Milk Tea until 3/4 full. Gently pour the matcha over the back of a spoon to create a clean layer. Spoon the Matcha Cold Foam generously over the top.
- Finish with a tiny pinch of sea salt flakes
