As the cherry blossoms start to bloom, it's the perfect time to enjoy the lovely Sakura Latte.
This special drink is perfect for spring and was a big hit at our recent pop-up.
We're sharing some tips on how to make it at home.
The Sakura Latte was inspired by the beautiful cherry blossom festivals in Japan.
The drink starts with milk that has a hint of cherry blossom flavor, which makes it taste light and fresh.
At Crafti, we wanted to make a drink that feels like spring in a cup, and this latte does just that.
2.5g (1¼ tsp) Ceremonial Uji Matcha Powder
50ml Water
3g Sakura powder
70ml Milk of Choice
2g Sugar (or to taste)
Ice
Sieve matcha powder into a cup.
Add warm water, and whisk until clump-free.
Blend milk and sakura powder together in a separate blender.
Fill a cup with ice, pour in the milk blend, then layer with the matcha mixture on top!
Add sweetener to taste
If you want to try making this latte at home, here are a few tips:
Milk:Use your favorite type of milk.
Sakura Mixture:We chose sakura powder for its delicate floral notes, reminiscent of springtime in Japan. It adds a gentle sweetness, much like rose. Stir it into the milk and blend. If you have a frother, use it to create a dreamy, cloud-like texture.
Sweetener:We recommend using a liquid sweetener (like a syrup), or mixing the sugar with the Sakura mixture.

This matcha goes down smooth and does not cause scratchiness in the throat. I agree that it is your everyday matcha cos it is easy to drink and does not come across as too grassy which some people may not like. I however tried the other reserve matcha powders and prefer the matcha oomph in those cans. This does not mean that that the ceremonial uji matcha is not good, but based on my preference, I want it to have more oomph, like my mouth is literally mowing the lawn kind.
Since receiving this kit, I’ve made a matcha latte every morning and it has been a nice way to kick start my day. I look forward to making my own matcha latte - it’s so relaxing and a great reminder to slow down and enjoy the process. My family members have also gotten hooked!
My original whisk had a broken tine but crafti was kind enough to send a replacement as this was meant to be a gift. Thank you Crafti!
Got this as a birthday gift for a colleague. Love the vibrant yellow box packaging and it complement well with the whole kit.
