Looking to freshen up a hot summer day? Matcha Lemonade is a great way to start your day off bright. Bright green, that is. This refreshing and sweet iced matcha green tea lemonade is a copycat of the Starbucks’ favorite that’s similar to the classic Arnold Palmer drink. It’s so easy and takes a few minutes to make!

Ingredients
- 1/2 teaspoon matcha powder (You can use more powder if you prefer a darker green color and more intense flavour)
- 1/3 cup boiling water
- 2 cups lemonade (store-bought or homemade*)
- 2 teaspoons sugar (You can use 1 teaspoon of sugar if you prefer a less sweet drink)
- Ice cubes
Instructions
- Add matcha powder and sugar to a small bowl or cup.
- Pour hot water on top. Whisk until completely dissolved. Chill the tea in the refrigerator.
- In a medium-large pitcher, mix together the lemonade and matcha tea.
- Optional: You can add more sugar to your desired sweetness. (It’s important to start with a small amount, and gradually add more.)
- Fill a glass halfway with ice and pour the mixture into the glass. Serve and enjoy immediately.
Notes
- *How to make homemade lemonade: Place 1/2 cup sugar and 1/2 cup water in a small saucepan and bring to a simmer. Let the sugar dissolve and remove from heat. Make 1/2 cup lemon juice by juicing 2-3 lemons. Pour the juice and the syrup into a jar, then add 1 to 1.5 cups of cold water. Taste, and add more water if necessary.
- Matcha powder gives your drink a nice green color. You can adjust the amount to make the color lighter or darker.
- Start with a small amount of sugar, taste, and gradually add more for the perfect subtle touch. Use stevia for a healthy option.
