Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 2 cups milk (any kind)
  • 1/2 cup white chocolate, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon matcha powder
  • 1 tablespoon honey

Optional Topping

  • Toasted marshmallows

Instructions

  1. Heat the milk: Pour 2 cups of your preferred milk into a saucepan and heat it over medium heat until it simmers gently, but does not boil.
  2. Melt the white chocolate: Remove the pan from heat and whisk in the 1/2 cup of chopped white chocolate until it’s completely melted and the mixture is smooth and creamy.
  3. Blend matcha and honey: Sift 1 tablespoon of matcha powder into the warm mixture along with 1 tablespoon of honey. Whisk briskly until the drink is frothy and all ingredients are well combined.
  4. Serve: Pour the warm matcha white hot chocolate into glass mugs.
  5. Optional garnish: Top with toasted marshmallows if desired. Use a kitchen torch to lightly toast marshmallows for a fancy finish.

Notes

  • Use any type of milk you prefer: dairy, almond, oat, or soy milk all work well.
  • Sifting the matcha powder ensures a smooth, clump-free drink.
  • The kitchen torch adds a lovely toasty flavor to marshmallows but you can toast them over a stovetop flame or skip this step entirely.
  • Adjust sweetness by varying the amount of honey to your taste.
  • For a vegan option, use plant-based milk and substitute honey with maple syrup or agave nectar.
