Post Halloween . I am left with two pumpkins. So I thought it won't hurt if I do something about it before the disposal take it's toll. To ransack the pantry and fridge is the easiest battle to take but I came up strong with this comforting blend of matcha and roasted pumpkin purée . Herés what you should do so you don't end up with clumpy looking froth like mine . That was my first try until I perfected the process and end up with a smooth comfort blend of Matcha-Pumpkin Latte. It is so versatile that anyone can make their own version suited to their taste buds.
Gather Ingredients
Gather matcha, pumpkin purée, brown sugar, evaporated milk, and OLiver freeze-dried marshmallows.
Optional
Cinnamon or Pumpkin Spice
Brew Matcha:
In a bowl, whisk the desired amount of matcha with hot water until smooth. Set aside. It is also desirable to whisk using a Chasen whisk for your matcha.
Heat Pumpkin Purée:
In a saucepan, heat the pumpkin purée over medium heat until it's warm but not boiling.
I made my own pumpkin purée. Simply roast the orange head in the oven and purée in a blender to your desired texture.
Sweeten with Brown Sugar or Maple Syrup.
Add brown sugar to the warm pumpkin purée and stir until it dissolves. Adjust sweetness to taste.
Prepare Evaporated Milk:
Heat evaporated milk in another saucepan or using a milk frother until hot. Be careful not to let it boil. There is something velvety about evaporated milk. You can opt for your most fave dairy or non dairy milk.
Combine Matcha and Pumpkin:
Mix the brewed matcha with the sweetened pumpkin purée. Stir well until they are evenly combined.
Assemble Latte:
Pour the matcha-pumpkin mixture into a serving mug. Slowly pour the hot evaporated milk over the matcha-pumpkin blend.
Create Froth
Froth the milk using a frother or whisk until a creamy froth forms. Carefully spoon the froth on top of the latte.
Garnish with OLiver Freeze-Dried Toasted Marshmallows on top of the froth for a delightful touch.
Serve and Enjoy!
Your Matcha-Pumpkin Latte is ready! Enjoy the unique blend of matcha and pumpkin flavors with the creamy texture of evaporated milk and the sweet crunch of freeze-dried marshmallows.
Feel free to adjust ingredient quantities based on your preferences!
Cheerios!!!!
