Let’s Make It:

Prepare the following:

• 🍋 ½ lemon (peeled – yes, peel it!)

• 🍯 1 big spoon of sugar or sugar syrup (sweetness = happiness)

• 💧 150 ml water (50 ml hot for the matcha + 100 ml cold for the lemonade)

• 🍵 2–3 grams ceremonial grade matcha (go for 3 g, life’s too short for weak matcha)

• 🧊 Ice cubes (optional, but highly recommended)

• ✨ Sparkling water (or still if you’re chill, but sparkling gives that zing)Steps to follow

Steps to follow

Start with the lemonade base. Peel half a lemon and toss it into a blender with your spoonful of sugar . Blend it like you mean it — we’re going for smooth and tangy.

Now strain that mixture through a fine sieve into a glass or jug. Add 100 ml of fizzy or regular water. What you’ve got now is your homemade lemonade base — refreshing already, right?

Next, make your matcha magic. Sift 2–3 grams of ceremonial matcha into your matcha bowl (no lumps allowed here). Add 50 ml of hot water (around 80°C — not boiling!) and whisk like a pro for 60–90 seconds until frothy and smooth.

Time to bring the two worlds together. Pour the matcha gently into your lemonade base. Add a few ice cubes if you want it extra cool. If you’re feeling fancy, top it with a splash of sparkling water for that café-level sparkle.

Take a second to admire those green and gold swirls — then stir, sip, and grin.

Enjoy your Matcha Lemonade — summer in a cup with a zen twist. 🍃✨
