Equipment

  • 1 Tea bowl
  • 1 Bamboo whisk
  • 1 Wooden spoon
  • 1 Mortar
  • 1 Pestle
  • 1 Cocktail shaker Optional

Ingredients
  

  • 2 tsp matcha powder
  • 60 ml water 80 degress
  • 1/2 tsp honey
  • 1 lime
  • 100 ml soda water
  • 1 bunch mint fresh
  • 1/2 cup ice

Instructions
 

  • Heat filtered water to approx 80°c.
  • Using a wooden spoon add 2 teaspoons of matcha into a tea bowl.
  • Add enough hot water to fill a little under half the bowl. Use a whisk in an M or Z shape to mix matcha with water until smooth and foamy.
  • If you don’t have a whisk, use a milk frother or a cocktail shaker.

With a shaker:

  • Mix mint and honey paste with matcha and lime juice using a cocktail shaker. Just add some ice (and some water if needed) and shake vigorously. Divide between glasses filled with more ice and top with soda water.

Without a shaker:

  • Add mint leaves and honey to a mortar, then gently muddle them together using a muddler (pestle).
  • Prepare a glass with ice.
  • Add mint and honey paste into a glass, followed by matcha and lime juice.
  • Pour soda water and use a straw to mix all the ingredients. Enjoy!
