Starbucks Iced Lavender Cream Oatmilk Matcha
/Ingredients
1 tablespoon sweetened matcha powder
¼ cup water
10 oz oat milk (I recommend barista-style or extra creamy)
⅓ cup lavender cream cold foam (recipe below, but you can substitute with lavender syrup if preferred)
Lavender Cream Cold Foam
¾ cup 2% milk
¼ cup heavy cream
2 tablespoon vanilla syrup (store-bought or homemade)
1 tablespoon lavender powder (recipe below)
Lavender Powder
¼ cup culinary-grade dried lavender
¾ cup granulated sugar
2 ½ teaspoon black currant powder (for color)
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon soy lecithin powder (optional for easier blending in drinks)
Instructions
In a small bowl, whisk together matcha powder and water.
Pour matcha mixture into glass and add ice. Pour in oat milk.
Top drink with lavender cold foam.
Lavender Cold Foam
Add milk, cream, vanilla syrup, and lavender powder to a large jar and shake well to combine (if you don't have a jar, you can stir together in a bowl). You can make this mixture ahead of time and store it in the fridge.
When ready to enjoy, add the sweet cream to an electric frother, blender, or bowl with hand mixer and froth, mix, or blend until the mixture turns into a foam. Alternatively, you can shake the mixture vigorously in a mason jar until it's frothy.
Lavender Powder
Put dried lavender in a spice or coffee grinder and grind flowers into a fine powder. Transfer to small bowl.
Whisk sugar, black currant powder, salt, and soy lecithin (if using) into ground lavender.
Transfer mixture back to grinder (you may have to work in batches) and process until entire mixture is a fine powder.
Store lavender powder in an airtight container at room temperature until ready to use.
