Ingredients
2 teaspoons matcha powder (ceremonial grade is best)
3 tablespoons hot water (175ºF)
2 scoops of vanilla bean gelato
2 crushed Strawberry Pocky Sticks
Directions
-
Using a fine-mesh strainer, sift the matcha powder into a small bowl. This is the most important step to ensure your "shot" is smooth and free of lumps.
-
Add just 1 tablespoon of the hot water to the bowl. Use a bamboo whisk (chasen) or a handheld frother to mix it into a smooth, thick paste.
-
Add the remaining 1 to 2 tablespoons of water and whisk vigorously in a "W" or "M" motion until a light froth forms on top.
-
Place your ice cream scoops into a chilled glass or small bowl.
-
Slowly pour the hot matcha shot over the ice cream.
-
Top with crushed Pocky sticks.
-
Serve immediately with a small spoon.
