Step 1

To begin, prepare your matcha jelly cubes. Bring 3 cups water to a boil, lower to a simmer and add in your agar powder. Whisk continuously to make sure the agar evenly dissolves. Add your maple syrup to sweeten, then remove the pot from the stove.

Step 2

Sift, then whisk your matcha powder with the remaining 1/2 cup warm water, then add your matcha mixture into the pot. Whisk again to combine and then pour your jelly mixture into an eighth sheet pan and allow to cool at room temp for 5 minutes. Transfer to the fridge to chill until firm to the touch.

Step 3

Once the jelly is set, remove from the fridge and use a small paring knife to slice your jelly into small cubes. Use a spatula to gently wiggle your cubes out of the tray.

Step 4

Now we are ready to assemble the drink! In a glass, add a handful of matcha jellies followed by plant milk of choice. Lastly, add a serving of whisked matcha on top and then sweeten as desired. I like to add fresh vanilla bean and a pinch of salt to finish.
