Matcha Affogato Float with Toasted Rice ice cream
Try this delicious variation on the traditional vanilla-and-espresso dessert.
A warm, emerald green matcha meets our signature Toasted Rice ice cream for a classic flavor pairing yet fun new take on traditional affogato.
The trick to good matcha is to keep if from clumping, so be sure to add just a little bit of water at first, and blend to form a paste. Use a small metal whisk to ensure you have removed all clumps. For the best results make sure you source high-quality matcha that's bright green and fresh.
Ingredients
3 teaspoons (about 5-6g) organic culinary matcha green tea powder
1/2 cup hot water (at 175ºF)
1-2 scoops Noona’s Toasted Rice ice cream
Instructions
Pour matcha in a small bowl. Add a few drops of hot water and whisk to form a paste. After all clumps are removed, gradually add the rest of the hot water, whisking until smooth.
Refrigerate the matcha tea if you’d like your matcha affogato chilled and not hot.
Scoop ice cream into a separate bowl for eating.
Pour matcha over ice cream and serve.
