As the cherry blossoms start to bloom, it's the perfect time to enjoy the lovely Sakura Latte.
This special drink is perfect for spring and was a big hit at our recent pop-up.
We're sharing some tips on how to make it at home.
The Sakura Latte was inspired by the beautiful cherry blossom festivals in Japan.
The drink starts with milk that has a hint of cherry blossom flavor, which makes it taste light and fresh.
At Crafti, we wanted to make a drink that feels like spring in a cup, and this latte does just that.
2.5g (1¼ tsp) Ceremonial Uji Matcha Powder
3g Sakura powder
70ml Milk of Choice
2g Sugar (or to taste)
Sieve matcha powder into a cup.
Add warm water, and whisk until clump-free.
Blend milk and sakura powder together in a separate blender.
Fill a cup with ice, pour in the milk blend, then layer with the matcha mixture on top!
Add sweetener to taste
If you want to try making this latte at home, here are a few tips:
Milk: Use your favorite type of milk.
Sakura Mixture: We chose sakura powder for its delicate floral notes, reminiscent of springtime in Japan. It adds a gentle sweetness, much like rose. Stir it into the milk and blend. If you have a frother, use it to create a dreamy, cloud-like texture.
Sweetener: We recommend using a liquid sweetener (like a syrup), or mixing the sugar with the Sakura mixture.
Nice hint of rose/ bandung fragrrance with subtle sweetness added to my glass of matcha latte. But ingredients list is unclear.
Am glad that I started my matcha journey with Crafti. The wonderful taste made me want to sip it everyday. To many more matcha drinks.
Its v sturdy, keeps my drink cool and best of all, it has the measurements on the wall which makes me save the hassle of having to measure my water :)
I wanted to drink more matcha for the antilxidant boost but the matcha lattes sold outside are usually already sweetened. Decided to give crafti a try after seeing that it comes with the free starter kit (I can't imagine whisking matcha manually) so I ordered. And just after one day, I'm drinking 2 cups of matcha latte daily, unsweetened, to my linking, what a win!
Pleasantly surprised by the smooth, creamy texture. The consistency is velvety and rich, making it indulgent without being overwhelming.
Perfect for all matcha lover 🤩🤩
This is a basic bamboo whisk that is easy to use & clean, and the perfect accompaniment to my Matcha mornings, especially when I'm not in a rush & I can make time to bloom & clean the whisk. Highly recommended for the quintessential Matcha-making experience :)
Have been waiting to try self-made matcha for the longest but was afraid it taste bad from past experience.
This is a game changer!
The matcha was smooth and with a lot of support and guidance from the team, booklet!
Will definitely be continuing the subscription!
A good size for 1 cup of matcha latte daily in the morning to perk me up for the whole day!
