Scoop the Matcha
Scoop 2 to 4 grams of matcha into a small bowl, depending on how thick you want the matcha flavor. Use a sift if you want to prevent clumps and ensure a silky texture. -

Add 2.5 to 3 oz of hot water (175F) and whisk using a bamboo chasen until the matcha is smooth and frothy. -
Add Ice and Yakult
Fill a glass with ice cubes and pour in the two bottles of Yakult. Leave a little space at the top for the matcha. -
Top with Matcha
Slowly pour the whisked matcha over the Yakult mixture. Watch the beautiful layers form! -

Give it a gentle stir before drinking—or leave it layered for a pretty presentation.
