Our today’s color theme is green and we have matcha to help us with this!

Matcha is a powder, really fine grounded, made out of specially grown and processed green tea and if you want to read more about it you can find all the information here.

For our cocktails:

  • How to prepare your matcha for these amazing cocktails: add  a teaspoon of matcha in your mug and pour 10 ml of boiling water in your mug. Stir well, you can use a spoon or the chasen (the wooden whisked like matcha stirrer ). Keep adding water until your mug is full. (150 ml of water in total). Leave it to get cold.
