Matcha tonic

1 serving

15 minutes

This is an amazing combination! Tonic is slightly bitter and sour, very refreshing - this is generally one of the most summery drinks. And matcha gives lemonade color and makes it healthy, plus adds a herbal aroma and taste. The simplest and most airy find on the theme of merging products. Ideal. The recipe was shared by the chef barista of the Touch of Matcha bistro Taisiya Spiridonova.
