There's nothing like a layered latte to brighten up your day, especially when it's a sunny Yuzu Hojicha Latte. The spoonful of sunshine is of course sweet yuzu marmalade, made from the Japanese citrus fruit. We've used the fragrant yuzu in the Fizzy Yuzu Hojicha recipe, and couldn't get enough of this flavor combination. The tart yuzu is in perfect contrast to the richness of roasted green tea, which is why you'll definitely want to stir this drink up before enjoying.
Did you wonder what water temperature we used in the video above? Whether you're making hot or cold roasted tea drinks, you can always start by using room temperature or cold filtered water to whisk the Hojicha Powder with your tool of choice. Using colder water is especially useful when preparing cold layered lattes like the Yuzu Hojicha Latte. Since one of the elements that helps keep the layers separate is the ice, using cold water to whisk the hojicha ensures that the top layer remains beautiful and keeps the ice from melting.
