Matcha Lemonade - Summer's Most Refreshing Mocktail

Looking for a drink that's refreshing, beautiful and gives you a little extra energy? Matcha lemonade is the answer. The tartness of the lemonade meets the soft, green depth of Zenzi Matcha, and a splash of oat milk makes everything a little creamier and rounder. Perfect for summer, perfect as an alcohol-free alternative at dinner, or just as a treat on a sunny day.

Ingredients - 1 serving

  • 2 g Zenzi Matcha
  • Lemonade of your choice
  • Ice
  • A splash of oat milk

How to Make It

  1. Fill a glass with ice.
  2. Pour in the lemonade, about three quarters of the glass.
  3. Whisk 2 g of Zenzi Matcha with 70–80°C water until smooth and frothy.
  4. Pour the matcha shot slowly over the ice to preserve the layers.
  5. Finish with a splash of oat milk for extra creaminess.

A Perfect Alcohol-Free Alternative

Matcha lemonade is one of the best alcohol-free drinks you can serve,  it looks festive, tastes complex and actually gives you a real energy boost thanks to matcha's natural caffeine and L-theanine. No sugar spike, no crash. Just clean, focused energy in a beautiful glass.

Why Zenzi Matcha?

Zenzi Matcha is ceremonial grade, organic and harvested from the youngest tea leaves in Uji, Japan. That gives it a naturally mild and sweet flavour, with no bitterness, that lifts the lemonade rather than overpowering it. The right matcha makes all the difference in this recipe.
