# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • It feels like sipping sunshine&the strawberry puree brings summer straight to your glass.
  • The matcha lifts your mood and energy, but oat milk rounds out the flavor so it never tastes overly grassy.
02 -
  • Pour the matcha slowly or the layers will blur&believe me, rushing makes the drink muddy and less fun.
  • Using cold oat milk creates clean lines between layers and keeps the drink from tasting lukewarm.
03 -
  • Warming the bamboo whisk beforehand helps matcha froth and prevents clumping.
  • Opting for certified gluten-free oat milk is essential if you're serving guests with sensitivity&it's often labeled clearly.
