Equipment

  • First, a shaker is essential for mixing everything together smoothly.
  • A muddler is great for releasing the flavors from fresh mint leaves.
  • Also, a fine mesh strainer helps in achieving a smooth texture by sieving out any lumps from the matcha.
  • Lastly, I find a cocktail glass or a mason jar perfect for serving.
  • Don't forget a teaspoon for measuring the matcha powder.
  • You might also want a kettle to heat water for dissolving the matcha.

Ingredients

Here's what you'll need to make your mocktail:

  • 1 teaspoon matcha powder
  • 1/4 cup hot water
  • 1 tablespoon honey or agave syrup
  • 1/2 cup cold sparkling water
  • 5 fresh mint leaves
  • Ice cubes
  • Optional garnishes include extra mint leaves or lemon slices for a zesty touch.

If you love a bolder taste, a little extra matcha can do the trick!

Instructions

Let's make this delicious drink step-by-step:

  • Whisk matcha powder in hot water until it dissolves completely. Use a whisk for a smooth blend.
  • Muddle mint leaves in your shaker to release their aroma.
  • Add ice cubes and the prepared matcha into the shaker.
  • Next, I pour in the syrup to sweeten and shake everything well until it's nicely chilled.
  • Strain the mix into a serving glass filled with fresh ice.
  • Finally, top with sparkling water and gently stir.
  • Garnish with extra mint leaves or a lemon slice.

Feel free to get creative and make it your own! 🍹

    Notes

    Feel free to tweak this recipe to suit your taste buds.
    Try adding lemon juice if you enjoy a tangy twist.
    The matcha can be increased for stronger flavors, but use it sparingly to avoid bitterness.
    If no shaker is available, a mason jar with a tight lid works just as well.
    This mocktail is perfect for any time of the year and can be doubled for more servings.
