# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • It feels like summer captured in a glass—and you'll never tire of the flavors.
  • The oat milk gives creamy smoothness, but keeps it totally vegan and dairy-free.
02 -
  • Don't pour boiling water over matcha—I learned the hard way it turns bitter fast.
  • Chilling the oat milk beforehand helps keep those layers crisp and separated.
03 -
  • Use barista-style oat milk for creamier, well-defined layers.
  • Sift your matcha beforehand for the smoothest texture—it's a tiny step that changes everything.
