Here's a few tips!
Use high-quality matcha powder. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your drink.
Don't over-whisk the matcha. This can make it bitter.
You don't need to add the vodka if you just want a refreshing energising fruity drink!
Get creative! You can add other flavors to your matcha drink, such as vanilla extract, cinnamon, or ginger.
Enjoy responsibly!
