Tools & Equipment

• Bamboo whisk (chasen)
• Electric milk frother
• Small saucepan
• Bowl (chawan)
• Drinking glass

Ingredients (for 1 latte)

Homemade Cherry Purée

• 100 g frozen cherries
• 1–2 tsp sugar
• 2 tbsp water

Latte

• 3 grams ceremonial or premium grade Matcha
• 50 ml cold water
• 150 ml cold milk
  • oat, almond, soy, or coconut milk
• Ice cubes
• 1 tsp rose syrup
• ½ tsp pink or red food coloring
• Dried rose petals
• Optional: fresh cherries for garnish

Directions

Step 1 — Make the Cherry Purée

Add the frozen cherries, sugar, and water to a small saucepan. Simmer over medium heat for 5–7 minutes until the cherries soften and become syrupy. Mash or blend into a smooth purée and let it cool completely.

Step 2 — Prepare the Pink Rose Milk

Add the milk, rose syrup, and food coloring to a milk frother. Use the cold setting if available until the milk becomes lightly frothy and soft pink.

Step 3 — Whisk the Matcha

In a bowl, whisk the matcha with the cold water for about 20 seconds until smooth and lightly foamy.

Step 4 — Assemble the Latte

Spoon 2 tablespoons of cherry purée into the bottom of a glass and fill with ice cubes. Pour in the pink rose milk, then slowly pour the matcha shot on top to create a beautiful layered effect. Finish with dried rose petals and optional fresh cherries.

Tip

Oat milk creates an extra creamy texture and complements both the floral rose flavor and sweet cherry notes beautifully.
