2 servings
For the strawberry syrup
- 1 cup fresh or frozen strawberries, hulled and halved
- 2 tbsp maple syrup
- 2 tbsp water
For the matcha
- 2 tsp ceremonial or culinary-grade matcha powder
- 3 tbsp hot water (not boiling, about 175°f / 80°c)

Instructions
- 1
Combine the strawberries, 2 tbsp maple syrup, and 2 tbsp water in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally and pressing the berries with the back of a spoon, until the strawberries have broken down and the mixture is syrupy, about 4–5 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool for 10 minutes, then press through a fine-mesh strainer into a small bowl, discarding the solids. You should have about 3–4 tbsp of strawberry syrup.

Sift the matcha powder into a small bowl or measuring cup to break up any clumps. Add the hot water (about 175°F / 80°C — not boiling, which can make matcha bitter) and whisk vigorously in a zigzag motion until the matcha is fully dissolved and no dry powder remains, about 30 seconds. Stir in the optional 1 tsp maple syrup, if using.
