# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • The surprise of matcha layered with strawberry makes every sip feel playful and new.
  • It’s just the right pick-me-up when you crave something vibrant yet not too sugary.
02 -
  • If you rush the layering, the colors will mix and you’ll miss the visual treat.
  • Using boiling water for the matcha turns it bitter so stick with just-steaming temperatures.

  • Don’t skimp on the strawberry puree; more means a prettier look and fuller flavor.
  • The matcha gets clumpy easily, so a bamboo whisk or frother is absolutely worth it.
