DAVIDsTEA’s official iced matcha latte method starts by measuring the matcha, whisking it with warm water, then adding milk and ice. The exact scoop count, powder flavor and liquid amount can vary by product, so use the current directions on your package alongside the general method below.
Basic DAVIDsTEA-style method
- Measure the matcha with the brand’s spoon or your package’s serving guidance.
- Sift it into a bowl or cup and add the small amount of warm water specified by the recipe.
- Whisk until the powder is smooth and lightly frothy.
- Fill a glass with ice, add cold milk, then pour in the whisked matcha.
- Stir and taste. Flavored or sweetened matcha may need less additional syrup.
DAVIDsTEA’s current iced matcha latte guide specifically recommends measuring the powder and whisking to create froth. Its blog recipe also notes that the method can work with different matcha flavors, but the label remains the best source for a particular blend.
Prevent clumps and over-sweetness
Do not dump dry powder directly onto ice and milk; hydrate it first. If your drink tastes too sweet, check whether the blend already contains sugar or flavoring before adding more. Plant milks change body and flavor, and extra ice dilutes the drink as it melts.
This is a brand-specific preparation guide, not a claim that every DAVIDsTEA product has identical ingredients. Matcha contains caffeine, so consider your own sensitivity and total daily intake. For a general method, see our matcha latte guide.
