How many pumps of powder and syrup are used in a Short Matcha?

In a Short Matcha, the correct amount of pumps of powder and syrup is one. This standard measurement is designed to balance the flavor and sweetness of the drink, ensuring that the matcha's earthy notes are not overwhelmed. Matcha powder typically requires careful balancing with sweeteners to achieve the desired taste profile.

Using one pump allows for a rich, yet not overly sweet flavor, maintaining the integrity of the matcha itself. Too many additional pumps could clash with the matcha's unique taste, making the beverage less enjoyable. Additionally, knowing the correct pump amount helps baristas maintain consistency in drink preparation, which is crucial for customer satisfaction.
