The internet is full of isolation crazes at the moment. First we jumped on board the Dalgona Iced Coffee and now here is the Matcha Version! Perfect for Non-Coffee drinkers and Matcha Lovers! Matcha includes many Health Benefits, as well as playing a great energy booster and calms your mind.

 

As you may have heard, Dalgona is a very popular drink in South Korea. The idea started circulating the internet from one very delicious looking TikTok video. Using three simple house hold ingredients, Instant Coffee, Sugar & Boiling Water, it has been easily accessible all over the world!

But, what about us who don’t drink Coffee? Time for us to get in on this fluffy, creamy, goodness!

So how do we do it? Some recipes floating around on the internet will use whipped egg whites, but we thought we’d go with the Vegan version...

You’ll need 4 Ingredients:

-         Liquid from 1 can of chickpeas (Aquafaba)
-         1 tablespoon your favourite matcha powder
-         2 tablespoons coconut sugar
-         2 tablespoons boiling water
-         Almond milk, or your favourite non-dairy milk (Served hot or cold)

 

And this is how it’s done:

1.      Drain your tin of Chickpeas and pour the Aquafaba into a mixing bowl. Using a whisk, beat the liquid until it forms into stiff peaks. This should take a few minutes, we preferred to use an electric mixer to help us along.

2.      In a separate bowl, get together your Matcha, Coconut Sugar & Boiling water. Stir this together until all the sugar crystals are out of sight.

3.    Now it's time to blend the two. Take your whipped Aquafaba and slowly add in the Matcha mixture until everything is well blended. You’ll start to see your Dalgona starting to take shape!

4.      Put some cubes of ice into a glass and add a cup of your chosen milk. Scoop up a few good dollops of your Matcha mix and add on top!
