Flight attendants have a lot of ideas to pass the time during long flights, and this was proven by how an Aegean Airlines air hostess, Alexandra, made a strawberry matcha latte in the flight’s galley. First, she whipped up the matcha powder using a bamboo whisk and kept it aside. After that, she mashed a handful of strawberries using a disposable fork in a paper cup.
Next, Alexandra took out two glasses to give the beverage a cafe-like feel and added the mashed strawberries with lots of ice cubes. She frothed some milk and poured it over the ice. Lastly, she poured the hero of the recipe, the matcha concoction, on top of the milk, and it was done! Her strawberry matcha was ready, and yes, it totally looked as if it had been made in a cafe.
