Its prescribed that one should utilize warm water in place of bubbling heated water to mix it.

Don't let it cool down for long otherwise you will find it difficult to brew it in a perfect manner.

Include the powder of green tea depending upon what sort of consistency you are looking for. In one cup, you could add from half scoop to a maximum of two scoops. For example, assuming that you are searching for thick texture then you may include 2 scoops while in the event that you need it to be thin then just half scoop might be all that anyone could need. You might as well strain it well in order to avoid any granules or particles coming into your mouth while you take a sip of it.

When the drink is still very hot, you must whisk it for a while in order to make it smooth textured. The recommended method is to add a little amount of hot water in your cup and then add the powder and whisk it until its smoothly mixed. Now you could add more water in it while stirring continuously so that the consistency that you desire can be achieved.
