I have decided to share my thoughts and tidbits of the day here (instead of texting a man as often as I do) and today I made a matcha latte for the first time! I added a bit of half and half to make it creamier and I'm so delighted.

I grabbed a tumbler and brewed a bunch of my favorite coffee, added vanilla cream and poured some in a little bowl to mix the matcha and poured it back. (Might’ve added a little caramel idk i zoned out) Then I just threw some ice in it. The flavor was so tastyyy will be making again ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

learning to make an expert iced matcha latte had long been on my list, and i cracked the code about two years ago. the catch is, getting good matcha powder and working with water at the right temperature! i whisk my matcha with a little bit of homemade vanilla syrup or local honey and water that’s 176 degrees Fahrenheit, gradually adding in a little more water at a time. once i have about a shot’s worth, i pour over ice and top with the milk of my choice. if i’m feeling extra domestic, i might even make my own almond or cashew milk!

very ugly picture (sorry) but this is my fav way to drink matcha as a non-expert 🫣 i love adding two teaspoons of honey and like 5 pumps of vanilla to my usual matcha latte w/ oat milk … it tastes so good still trying to adjust my ratio tbh but i made one for my bf recently and he gave it a 10/10 ^__^

It's so lawless. You’ll see the weirdest things and no one will care. People are so unabashedly human here. Dead expressions, exhaustion, boredom. You’ll get a coffee, someone else will get a bloody mary, the time is irrelevant. Your priorities will be tested, everything costs at least three times as much as it should, it won’t matter. I love liminal spaces.
