We bought a tiny jar of matcha green tea powder in London.
Matcha is actually quite expensive, but a little goes a long way. Less than a teaspoon creates an intensely green cocktail, making it look more of a potion. However, the tea taste is nowhere near as intense as the color. The drink is more or less a classic whiskey sour with the added element of tea. And it works!
What’s in it
0,5 teaspoons of matcha green tea powder
1 oz fresh lemon juice
2 oz rye
0,75 oz simple syrup
a dash of bitters (we used scrappy’s cardamom bitters)
