Matcha Frappe Recipe: 3 Easy Blended Versions You Can Make at Home

A matcha frappe is one of the most satisfying ways to enjoy matcha on a hot day in Bangladesh. Thick, cold, frothy, and full of flavour, it takes under five minutes to prepare with a basic blender. This guide gives you three blended versions so you can find your favourite. All use matcha from Matcha.bd available with Cash on Delivery.

Desiccated coconut	1 tablespoon (optional garnish)

Tips for the Best Matcha Frappe

*      Always whisk matcha with a small amount of hot water first. Adding powder directly to cold milk creates clumps that do not blend well.

*      For a thicker frappe, freeze your milk in an ice cube tray and use milk ice instead of water ice.

*      For a stronger matcha flavour, increase matcha to 2 teaspoons.

*      Drink immediately after blending. Frappes separate quickly as the ice melts.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Which blender works best for a matcha frappe?

Any standard blender works. For a smoother result, blend for an extra 10 to 15 seconds. A single-serve blender (personal blender) is ideal for making one portion quickly.

Can I make a matcha frappe without ice cream?

Yes. Replace ice cream with an extra handful of ice and an extra tablespoon of honey. The texture will be slightly less creamy but still delicious and lower in calories.
