Notes
- Some matcha dissolves easier than others. If yours doesn't dissolve fully, you may want to strain it through a fine-mesh sieve before adding it to the lemonade so there are no little green bits in your drink.
- To make a single serving of matcha lemonade, use these amounts:
- 1 cup water
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 2 teaspoons matcha
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
