🌿 Ingredients (Serves 2–3)

• 2 cups (480 ml) milk of choice (almond, oat, or coconut milk work great)

• 1/4 cup (40 g) chia seeds

• 1.5 tsp culinary-grade matcha powder

• 1/3 cup (60 g) white chocolate chips or chopped white chocolate

• 1–2 tbsp maple syrup or honey (optional, to taste)

• 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

• A pinch of salt

Optional toppings: fresh berries, shredded coconut, extra white chocolate shavings, or a dusting of matcha.

🥄 Instructions

1. Melt the white chocolate:
   In a small saucepan, gently heat the milk over low heat. Add the white chocolate and stir until completely melted and smooth. Don’t let it boil.

2. Whisk in flavor:
   Remove from heat and whisk in matcha powder, maple syrup (if using), vanilla extract, and a tiny pinch of salt. Make sure the matcha is fully dissolved – a handheld milk frother or small whisk works wonders here.

3. Add chia seeds:
   Pour the warm mixture into a mixing bowl or jar. Stir in the chia seeds and mix well.

4. Let it set:
   Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight. Stir once after 10–15 minutes to prevent clumping.

5. Serve & enjoy:
   Give it a good stir, spoon into serving glasses, and top with your favorites – fresh fruit, more chocolate, or a dusting of matcha for that café-style finish.
