# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • You can make this for guests and watch their jaws drop before the first sip; it's a showstopper for summer afternoons.
  • The flavors surprise you: the lush sweetness of strawberry and the nutty oat milk mellow out the matcha's grassy kick.
02 -
  • If you over-blend the strawberries or use watery berries, the puree can get too thin and sink instead of layering.
  • Pouring matcha too quickly will muddle the effect—taking your time delivers those perfect stripes.
03 -
  • Stirring the drink from bottom up gives a fun ombré effect and blends flavors perfectly.
  • Sifting matcha before whisking creates a creamier, lump-free layer every time.
