Mustard Free Vegan Oat Milk Strawberry Matcha Latte

This layered drink is a feast for the eyes before it even hits your lips — vivid pink strawberry at the base, creamy oat milk in the middle, and a deep green matcha crown on top. The strawberry sauce is made from scratch by simmering fresh or frozen berries with maple syrup until they break down into something silky and naturally sweet. Ceremonial-grade matcha brings a grassy, slightly bitter depth that balances the fruity base beautifully, and frothed oat milk ties it all together with a smooth, latte-style richness. Every single ingredient here is straightforwardly plant-based and free from the condiment-aisle concerns that can sneak into flavored drinks and coffee shop syrups. Pouring the matcha over the back of a spoon is the little trick that keeps those gorgeous layers intact right up until you stir and sip. It's the kind of drink that looks like it took serious barista skill but comes together in under fifteen minutes at home.

Ingredients

2 servings

For the strawberry base

1 cup fresh or frozen strawberries, hulled
2 tbsp maple syrup
2 tbsp water

For the matcha

2 tsp ceremonial-grade matcha powder
4 tbsp hot water (175°f / 80°c), divided

For the latte

2 cups oat milk
1 cup ice

Instructions

1
Combine the strawberries, maple syrup, and 2 tbsp water in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the strawberries have broken down and the mixture is syrupy, about 4–5 minutes. Transfer to a blender or use an immersion blender and blend until smooth, then strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a small bowl, pressing on the solids. Set aside to cool slightly.
2
Sift the matcha powder into a small bowl to break up any clumps. Add 2 tbsp of the hot water (175°F / 80°C) per serving — 2 tbsp for each bowl if making individually — and whisk in a brisk zigzag motion until the matcha is fully dissolved and a light foam forms on the surface, about 30 seconds.
