Warm and Foamy Sakura Latte - Great for Company Too

It's hard to find a way to use sakura liqueur, but I buy it to make this. I definitely recommend adding in sake lees if you don't dislike it. Drinking it before going to bed will make you dream of spring.
The point it is heat it up to the point right before it boils. Please adjust according to your microwave. The protein separates easily even with soy milk when well-heated (especially when adding in sake lees), so make sure to add and mix in an equal amount of milk before heating it up. For 1 mug cup.

Cooking Instructions
- 1
If you are adding in sake lees, add a bit of sake lee (I recommend something with large grains) with a bit of hot water, and lightly break it up.
- 2
Fill the mug half with milk and half with soy milk, then add in the sugar, salt, and liquer, and mix.
- 3
Now for microwaving. Microwave at 600W for 1-2 minutes. I select the "Drink"→"Level 3" setting on my microwave, and stop it 10 seconds before it finishes for the perfect result.
- 4
Point : Heating it up to a gentle boil will thicken it up and make it delicious. However if it starts to boil it will separate and splatter about without a moment's notice.
- 5
Keep watch in front of the microwave even if it's a pain, and stop it the moment the surface starts to gently bubble. Float some washed sakura petals (No need to remove the salt) on the surface, and it is done.

Now time to relax. This is a really lovely drink for guests if you serve it to them in a small-sized tea cup.

Spring-Coloured Sakura Matcha Latte Spring-Coloured Sakura Matcha Latte
I bought some pickled cherry blossoms and wondered if I could use them in a drink. I used some strawberry vanilla tea leaves that were blended with matcha to make a drink a base for this recipe, replacing the strawberry with cherry blossoms. It tasted delicious.I like the salty taste of pickled cherry blossoms so I've only rinsed the saltiness away a little bit in Step 1. If you prefer them to be less salty, please adjust the soaking time to your taste.* In Step 3, feel free to replace the whisked tea with whipped cream if you'd prefer.* I tried adding a few drops of brandy at Step 3 after pouring the latte into the mug and it tasted very nice. * Use one big pickled cherry blossom or two small ones.

Home Cafe Caffe Latte Home Cafe Caffe Latte
The friends to gather at my house include those who love coffee, tea, or both! When I served this to my coffee loving friends, they said "It's just like being at a cafe!" and were so happy. I serve this sometimes with cinnamon sugar.If you add caramel sauce on top of the foamy milk you will have "caramel macchiato". You can make a picture on the foam using cinnamon or cocoa powder. You can use this recipe as the base and make a lot of variations.Real caffe latte is made with espresso, but I used a deeply roasted coffee bean type like French Roast. For about 2 cups worth.

Strawberry Vanilla Maple Matcha Latte Strawberry Vanilla Maple Matcha Latte
In our house, Matcha Fridays are a tradition, and we've perfected our favorite matcha latte.When experimenting with a strawberry vanilla maple version, I found that fresh strawberries make all the difference—freeze-dried strawberries don’t compare. Maple syrup is our sweetener of choice, but for a more neutral sweet flavor, sub the maple syrup for simple syrup. #april2026 lilis.home
