Quick answer

Empty one sachet into a cup, add hot water, and stir well. For a hot latte, use about 200 ml (6.7 oz) of hot water. For an iced latte, dissolve the sachet in about 150 ml (5 oz) of hot water first, then add ice and cold water to taste.

Why water temperature and order matter

The powder in a 3-in-1 sachet contains matcha green tea powder, creamer, and sugar. Hot water dissolves these ingredients evenly, while cold water can leave clumps and a gritty texture. That is why the package directions call for hot water even when you plan to serve the drink over ice.

If you add ice directly to the powder before stirring, the drink chills too quickly and the powder may not fully dissolve. Always stir the sachet into hot water first, then add ice or cold water.

Hot vs iced: what changes

The main difference is the amount of hot water used to dissolve the sachet. For a hot drink, the full 200 ml (6.7 oz) of hot water becomes the entire beverage, giving a rich and creamy texture. For an iced drink, you use less hot water (150 ml / 5 oz) to make a concentrated base, then add ice and cold water. This keeps the drink from tasting watered down once the ice melts.

The package directions note that you can adjust the amount of water according to taste. If you prefer a stronger matcha flavor, use slightly less water. For a milder drink, add a little more.

Adjusting sweetness and strength

Because the sachet already contains sugar and creamer, you cannot separate the sweetness from the matcha. If you want a less sweet drink, use more water or add a splash of unsweetened milk. For a stronger matcha taste, use less water. Keep in mind that the package does not provide a milk-to-water ratio for adding extra milk, so start with small amounts and adjust gradually.

Step-by-step: making a hot or iced matcha latte

  1. Heat the water: Heat water until hot but not boiling. Boiling water can make the matcha taste bitter. Let it cool for a minute after boiling. Use hot, not boiling, water for a smoother flavor.
  2. Add the sachet to a cup: Empty one sachet of Prince of Peace 3-in-1 Instant Matcha Latte into a heatproof cup. Tear the sachet carefully to avoid spilling powder.
  3. Pour in hot water and stir: For a hot latte, add about 200 ml (6.7 oz) of hot water. For an iced latte, add about 150 ml (5 oz) of hot water. Stir well until the powder is completely dissolved. A small whisk or frother helps eliminate clumps. Stir until no dry powder remains before adding ice.
  4. Finish your drink: For a hot latte, taste and add more hot water if you prefer a milder flavor. For an iced latte, add ice cubes and a splash of cold water to taste, then stir again. Add ice gradually so the drink stays strong.
  5. Adjust and enjoy: If the drink is too sweet, add a little unsweetened milk or more water. If it is too weak, use less water next time. Serve immediately. Keep notes on your preferred water amount for next time.
