1. In a small saucepan, combine water and sugar. Bring to a gentle simmer, stirring continuously until sugar has completely dissolved. Remove from heat and whisk in matcha green tea powder until well combined. Set aside in the refrigerator to cool.
2. Once cooled, remove from refrigerator and stir in 1-2 teaspoons of TASC Native Lemon Myrtle extract.
3. Fill four tall glasses with ice. Pour 1/4 cup of matcha and native Lemon Myrtle syrup over ice and top with milk of choice. Stir to combine and enjoy!
Tips- We used almond milk in our Iced Matcha Green Tea and Native Lemon Myrtle Latte, but you can enjoy it with the milk of your choice.
- Try warming and frothing the milk and serving your Matcha Green Tea and Native Lemon Myrtle Latte hot for something different.
