Equipment
- Matcha Whisk (optional)
- Sifter (optional)
Ingredients
- ½ teaspoon High-Quality Matcha
- 2 tsps Sugar or Sugar Alternative
- ¼ cup Warm Water
- ⅓ cup Lemon Juice
- Ice Cubes
Instructions
- Over a small bowl or measuring cup, use a sifter to add ½ teaspoon of matcha powder to the bowl.
- Be sure to sift the matcha through to avoid excessive clumps in your lemonade
- Into the same bowl, though not through the sifter, add 2 teaspoon of sugar or a sugar alternative
- In a glass measuring cup, heat up ¼ cup of water, or use already warm water
- Have a matcha whisk, regular whisk, or a fork ready, and slowly pour the warmed water into the bowl with matcha and sugar, whisking vigorously to prevent any clumping.
- Add ice to your glass of choice and pour ⅓ cup of lemon juice over the ice
- Pour the matcha mixture over the top and stir
- Taste and add more sugar if needed
Notes
- Please note that this addition will be the only source of sweetness in this drink. If you prefer a sweeter lemonade, I recommend adding 3-4 teaspoon total of sugar. This recipe as is will produce a pretty tart lemonade.
- If you want to skip the lemon juice and sugar entirely, you can absolutely use pre-made lemonade!
- As mentioned prior, any sugar or sugar alternative will work here! Honey, agave, and maple syrup should also suffice with the same measurements.
