Instructions:
- Bring the water to a boil and let it cool for a few minutes.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the matcha powder and a small amount of the water to create a smooth paste.
- In a separate small saucepan, heat the milk over medium heat until it is steaming but not boiling.
- Pour the remaining water into a mug and add the matcha paste. Stir until well combined.
