Matcha Espresso Fizz

1. Whisk the Matcha

1. In a small cup or bowl, combine the matcha powder, warm water, and simple syrup.
2. Whisk vigorously with a small whisk or milk frother for 15–20 seconds until smooth, lump-free, and lightly frothy.

2. Build the Drink

1. Pour the sweet matcha base directly into the bottom of a highball glass.
2. Fill the glass generously with ice cubes to the brim.
3. Slowly pour the chilled club soda over the ice, leaving roughly 2 cm of space at the top.

3. Float the Espresso & Finish

1. Gently pour the freshly pulled espresso over the back of a spoon onto the top of the drink to create a distinct, dramatic top layer.
2. Garnish with a spanked sprig of fresh mint and serve immediately with a straw for the guest to stir before drinking.
