Water straight from the kettle is too hot for matcha and makes it bitter, so let it cool for a minute after boiling. A small bamboo whisk or a handheld milk frother both give a smooth, lump-free result. Use a good quality matcha, since the flavor is the whole drink. For a sweeter latte, add a little more honey or switch to maple syrup.
