METHOD
1. Start by preparing the sakura powder that you will pour into the milk later, and reserve. For this, grab the sakura cherry blossom powder and pour it into a mug, cup, chawan or your favorite, and add the water, mix it with a whisk, spoon, electric mixer until it is well dissolved. Sakura powder dissolves easily, but make sure not to leave any lumps.
2. Grab a cup and warm up some milk, or if you want a cold sakura latte, simply pour in your favorite milk, add the sweetener if you want it to have a sweeter taste.
3. Now, pour in the previously prepared sakura on top of the milk, and watch it become sakura latte.
4. You can add some milk foam on top, or ice cubes if you prefer an iced sakura latte instead.
