A delicate balance of earthy green tea, smooth shochu, and rich Japanese whisky, lifted by a touch of banana liqueur and agave. Instead of matcha, I used green tea powder for a flavor closer to freshly brewed sencha, inspired by Kagoshima’s tea culture. This cocktail is a quiet, complex sip with a lingering warmth.

Note: Matcha is made from tencha leaves, finely ground for a smooth texture and rich umami. Green tea powders like Arabikicha come from kabuse sencha, are slightly coarser, roasted for aroma, and mix easily without a whisk.

A refreshing blend of vibrant blood orange, earthy matcha, and sparkling soda water, this alcohol-free drink offers a unique and invigorating experience with a pop of color and flavor.

The Matcha Pistachio Nut Latte is a creamy, nutty twist on the usual iced matcha latte! Made with pistachio milk, almond milk, a touch of agave, and topped with pistachio creamer—it’s pure green magic in every sip. My page is all about cocktails, but every now and then, I’ll throw in a latte for a little something extra.
