Iced Matcha Drinks (Printable Version)
Chilled matcha gets a pop from tart lime, crisp apple, cool mint, and a splash of maple syrup over ice.
# What You'll Need:
01 -
Ice cubes, however many you like
02 -
Fresh mint leaves, a small handful
03 -
Thin apple slices
04 -
Round lime slices
05 -
Cold water, 1 quart
06 -
Natural maple syrup, 1 to 3 teaspoons, use what you like
07 -
Matcha green tea powder, 1 teaspoon
# Step-by-Step Guide:
01 -
Give everything in the pitcher a gentle mix so all the flavors get together nicely. Pour into glasses right away with extra fruit and mint on top if you want.
02 -
Toss in the mint leaves, lime rounds, some apple slices, and all the ice you want into the pitcher.
03 -
Add the matcha blend from before into a pitcher, then pour in cold water. Leave enough space for your ice.
04 -
Stir in maple syrup to taste right into your dissolved matcha mixture. Make sure it blends in.
05 -
Grab a small bowl, sprinkle in your matcha powder, add about 1/3 cup hot water, and whisk it well until there aren't any clumps left.
# Additional Notes:
01 -
If apples aren't your thing, try tossing in some fresh berries for a new spin.
02 -
Want fewer carbs? Use stevia or monk fruit sweetener instead of maple syrup.
