Sparkling yuzu matcha
Yuzu, the Japanese citrus, with matcha: the pairing now on Paris café menus.
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp yuzu juice (½ fresh yuzu)
- 1 tsp honey
- Ice cubes
- 120 ml sparkling water
- 2 g matcha + 30 ml water at 80 °C
Method
- Mix the yuzu juice and honey at the bottom of a glass, add the ice.
- Pour in the sparkling water.
- Whisk the matcha with the water at 80 °C, 15 seconds in an “M” motion.
- Pour the matcha gently on top.
No bamboo whisk? A small electric milk frother makes a decent foam — or a tightly closed jar, shaken for twenty seconds.
