The ultimate mini matcha latte

Okay but seriously—how is something THIS tiny, THIS cute, and THIS good?! Welcome to your new favorite afternoon obsession: the mini matcha latte with taro milk and a dreamy ube whip. She's tiny, she's trendy, and she's got main character energy.

If matcha and dessert had a baby, and that baby was extra with a capital E, this would be it. Let’s break it down because YES, you’re gonna wanna try this.

The vibe: tiny, dreamy, dessert-y

This little latte is giving:

• Major aesthetic energy (yes, post it on your story immediately)

• Sweet but not too sweet—just the right balance of earthy matcha, creamy taro, and that hint of ube on top

• Perfect pick-me-up for that 3pm slump when you’re over your to-do list but not quite ready to nap

• Miniature moment (because tiny drinks are objectively cuter and I don’t make the rules)

What You’ll Need

Here’s the super simple (and slightly bougie) lineup:

• 2.5g matcha powder (make it a good one, we’re going for smooth not bitter)

• 30ml hot water (not boiling! think 175°F or ~80°C)

• 90ml taro milk (I got mine from H-Mart and honestly it slaps)

• Ube whip topping:

  • 1 tbsp vegan whipping cream

  • A drop of ube extract

  • A little agave syrup (optional – skip if your taro milk is already sweet)

How to make it

1. Whisk your matcha like it’s your full-time job. 2.5g matcha + 30ml hot water = a smooth, frothy green base. Use a matcha whisk if you have one, or a milk frother in a pinch.

2. Add that taro milk (cold or warmed—up to you!). It's creamy, purple, and the ultimate glow-up for your matcha.

3. Whip the whip! Mix your vegan cream + ube extract (and sweetener if you want) until it’s soft and fluffy. Spoon that purple cloud right on top.

4. Snap a pic, post it, tag your bestie, then sip and smile. You just made the cutest drink on the internet.

Why you’ll be making this on repeat

• It’s giving latte meets dessert energy

• It’s totally vegan, totally dreamy

• Looks like you got it from a cute café, but you made it in your kitchen (ICONIC)

• You get to say “ube whip” out loud, which is just… fun

One last thing...

This isn’t just a drink. It’s a moment. A pastel, creamy, sweet-with-an-earthy-kick kind of moment. So whether you’re looking to impress someone with your ✨beverage game✨ or you just need a little treat to brighten your day—this one’s for you.

BRB, making another 💜🍵
