@the.coffee.machin8 Favorite drink so far, and I'm planning to do a cocktail version next! This was so incredibly refreshing, I wanted to take it right out to the pool.

This is my favorite drink so far — and I'm already planning a cocktail version. It's incredibly refreshing, layers beautifully in the glass, and is the kind of drink you want to take straight to the pool. The name is a mouthful (still accepting suggestions), but the flavor is worth it.
Ingredients
- 2 Tbsp lemonade
- 1/4 cup watermelon juice
- 2 Tbsp sparkling water
- 2 tsp ceremonial matcha
Instructions
- Prepare the matcha. Prepare the ceremonial matcha according to the package directions — typically whisk with a small amount of hot (not boiling) water until smooth and frothy. Set aside.
- Build the base. Fill a tall glass with ice. Add the lemonade, watermelon juice, and sparkling water.
- Top with matcha. Pour the prepared matcha over the top. Take a moment to admire the beautiful layering.
- Stir and enjoy. Give it a good stir to combine all the flavors, and enjoy!
Tips
For fresh watermelon juice, blend 5–6 cups of cubed watermelon and strain through a fine mesh sieve — you'll get about 2 cups of juice. This stores well in the fridge for a few days, so make a batch. For a cocktail version, add a shot of vodka or tequila — recipe coming soon!
