MATCHA AFFOGATO

MATCHA AFFOGATO

Italian simplicity meets Japanese matcha — creamy vanilla gelato drenched in silky, vibrant Being Co. matcha.

YOU’LL NEED

  • 2 scoops vanilla gelato or good-quality vanilla ice cream
  • 2 tsp Being Co. Premium Japanese Matcha
  • 120 ml hot water
  • 2 tsp Being Co. Monk Fruit Sweetener, honey or maple syrup — optional
  • Extra Being Co. Premium Japanese Matcha, for dusting

MAKE IT

1. Prepare the matcha
Divide the matcha between two small bowls. Add 60 ml hot water to each and whisk until smooth, glossy and lightly frothy.

2. Sweeten if you like
Stir 1 tsp sweetener into each matcha. Leave unsweetened for a more traditional affogato.

3. Scoop
Place 1 scoop of vanilla gelato into each chilled dessert glass or small ceramic bowl.

4. Pour
Slowly pour the warm matcha over each scoop, allowing it to cascade down the gelato and pool around the base.

5. Finish
Dust lightly with Premium Japanese Matcha and serve immediately.

BEING CO. TIP

The magic is in the contrast — cold, creamy vanilla gelato + warm, intensely green Japanese matcha.
