A quiet ceremony.
Balanced, our everyday ratio
4 g matcha · 50 ml water · 120 ml milk
Creamy, rounded, matcha-forward.
-
Spoon 4 g of SHADO matcha, about two level bamboo scoops.

Sift it into a bowl so it whisks smooth, with no clumps.
-
Add 50 ml of water at 75 °C. Hot, not boiling, so the leaf stays sweet.

Whisk briskly in a double motion, a quick zigzag back and forth from the wrist, not circles, for 20 seconds, until a fine foam appears.
-
Pour over 120 ml of warm milk. Sweeten if you like.
