Starbucks Matcha Lemonade Recipe
Matcha and lemonade are combined to make this refreshing copycat Starbucks drink.
Ingredients
Matcha
- 2 Teaspoons Matcha (ceremonial or latte grade)
- 1/2 Cup Water
Lemonade
- 1/3 Cup Lemon Juice (freshly squeezed)
- 1/3 Cup Water
- 2.5 Tablespoons Simple Syrup*
- Ice
Instructions
Matcha
- The easiest way to prepare the matcha is to put it in a jar with the 1/2 cup water, seal the jar with its lid, then shake vigorously until it is well mixed.
Lemonade
- Add the lemon juice, water, and simple syrup together, then stir to combine.
Matcha Lemonade
- Add ice to a large cup (I use this 16oz tumbler). Pour the lemonade in.
- Next, pour in the matcha. If you want to layer it, pour it over really slowly.
- Swirl cup around to mix before drinking. Enjoy immediately.
Notes
*Want to make a small amount of simple syrup just for this recipe? Add 1/4 cup sugar and 1/4 cup water to a saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until the sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat and allow to cool. Store any excess in a sealed container. (This should make enough simple syrup to make two of these drinks).
