Matcha iced tea - the refreshing drink for the summer
In this recipe you will find how you can quickly and easily prepare a delicious Matcha iced tea with refreshing mint. This drink is perfect for hot summer days, because instead of a hot infusion you can enjoy the vitalizing effect of Matcha tea as an ice-cold variant!
Ingredients:
For 4 servings you need the following ingredients:
- 1000 ml of water or mineral water
- 2 limes (pressed into juice)
- 1 lime (sliced)
- Agave syrup (depending on taste)
- 5 sprigs of fresh mint (leaves torn off)
- Ice cubes or crushed ice
- 4 teaspoons Matcha powder
Due to its strong and aromatic taste, we recommend ours for this delicious Matcha iced tea Matcha gourmet. This is also characterized by its great price-performance ratio, especially in the 100g bag!
- First you have to boil some water and add the matcha powder (Matcha gourmet) to a thick tea pulp. This works best with a Matcha bamboo whisk. You can also find tips and tricks for preparing your Matcha tea in our blog at Matcha preparation.
- While the tea pulp is in the fridge to cool, you can continue with the preparation of the limes. Cut 1 lime into slices and squeeze the juice from the other two limes.
- Now you can remove the fresh mint leaves from the branches.
- Now you can put the water / mineral water or, depending on your taste, a mixture of water and mineral water in a carafe and carefully add the cooled matcha tea pulp.
- Finally, add the ice cubes / crushed ice, mint and lime slices to the matcha iced tea in the carafe and, depending on your taste, season the whole thing with a little agave syrup.
- Finally, you can garnish the glasses with the remaining mint leaves and the lime slices and serve the refreshing cold drink with straws.
Tip:
This delicious soft drink is a real eye-catcher at summer parties when the Matcha iced tea is served in visually appealing long drink, jam or wide water glasses. As a result, mint leaves and lime slices are distributed particularly nicely between the ice cubes and the bright green Matcha ice tea! Finally, the edge of the glass can be garnished with a slice of lime and a little mint!
