Honey oat hojicha iced latte with roasted Uji hojicha swirled into oat milk

A smooth and creamy iced hojicha balanced with natural honey sweetness. Roasted instead of shaded, hojicha trades matcha's grassy edge for toasted caramel depth, and carries a fraction of the caffeine, which makes this the evening drink on this page.

Method

Whisk the hojicha with the hot water until smooth and frothy.
Stir the honey and a small pinch of salt into the warm hojicha until fully dissolved.
Fill a glass with ice and pour in the oat milk.
Pour the hojicha over the milk and stir before drinking.

Matcha tipsDissolving the honey in the warm hojicha is what keeps it from settling at the bottom of the glass. Adjust to your preferred sweetness, and drink it fresh.
