How to Make the Mint Julep Matcha Cocktail

Ingredients

  • 2 Tsps Ceremonial Matcha Powder
  • 3/4 Cup Water (Cold)
  • 1/2 Cup Spearmint Leaves
  • 2 Tbsps Sugar
  • 1 to 2 Tbsps Lemon Juice
  • 1/2 Cup Bourbon
Step 1: In a small bowl, mix the water into your matcha powder slowly. Once combined, set aside.
Step 2: In another container, add your spearmint leaves and sugar. Mix them together with a spoon or a drink muddler, making sure the sugar crushes the leaves to release the spearmint oil.
Step 3: Add your lemon juice and bourbon to the leaves and sugar mixture, giving it a quick stir before adding your matcha.
Step 4: Strain your mixture over ice and enjoy!
