I forgot I had this, so when I was digging around in the matcha drawer of the refrigerator I figured I had better finish up this tin. I needed some ice cold beverages to serve at lunch as we were hot and pretty wrecked from working in the garden and I hoped the matcha would restore some zip.
I put a teaspoon of the powder in a cocktail shaker that I scored for $5 at an estate sale. (It came with a bottle opener and something else, too.) I added a little sugar and some lime juice, rather a lot I thought so I was afraid it would be too strong. I shook it up and poured it – a nice, deep green!
Hubby came in to eat, looked at his glass and sarcastically said, “Well, that looks tasty!” Then he surprised himself by liking it very much.
I am satisfied with the quality of this matcha for the price, but the pricing confused me last time I reviewed it. Even now, the site shows the original price as 34.50 and says it is on sale for 24.50. It is a good price for this matcha and I am sure we will finish it off quickly now that I have a cold matcha recipe that most of the family loves.
