How To Make Dubai Chocolate Matcha Latte

Step 1 - Prepare the Chocolate Base

Drizzle chocolate sauce inside your glass and add a small amount at the bottom.

This creates a rich base and a premium layered look.

Barista oat milk works best for a creamy texture and smooth layering.

Step 3 - Prepare the Matcha

Whisk matcha powder with hot water until smooth and slightly frothy.

Make sure there are no clumps for a clean taste.

Step 4 - Make Pistachio Cream

Mix pistachio cream with a bit of milk or cream until smooth.

Lightly froth if possible.

Step 5 - Layer the Drink

Pour matcha gently over the milk.

Top with pistachio cream.

You’ll get a beautiful layered effect:
chocolate bottom → milk → green matcha → pistachio top

Step 6 - Serve

Stir before drinking or enjoy it layered.

The flavor develops as everything blends together.
