Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 0 minutes
Total Time: 10 minutes
Servings: 1

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).
