Pro tip: Pop your cocktail glass in the freezer before you get started for an extra chill factor.

INGREDIENTS:

• 1 tsp Matcha Nude - the star of the show! 
• 2 tbsp water to dissolve your matcha
• 1-2 oz non-alcoholic gin or your fav boozy gin: We personally love  Lyre’s but are seeing so many more on the market! 
• 1/2 lemon or lime juice 
• 1-2 tsp sweetener - we love it with maple syrup
• Fresh mint: Because every great drink deserves a fancy garnish.
• Ice cubes: Can't forget those! They're essential for keeping things cool and refreshing.

HOW TO:

1. Start by dissolving your matcha into the water using an electric frother, matcha whisk or jar with a lid until it's smooth and frothy. Need help? We've got tips here. Whisking the matcha is key to banishing any pesky clumps and unlocking that full-on flavor experience.
2. Grab your cocktail shaker and toss in the whisked matcha along with all the other ingredients (except the ice and mint). Give it a good shake until everything's nicely combined.
3. Add in those ice cubes and shake things up again, really getting your groove on.
4. Now, it's time to serve up the magic! Strain your matcha mixture into a chilled coupe glass or martini glass, and don't forget to jazz it up with a sprig of fresh mint if you're feeling fancy.

There you have it, folks – the Matcha Nude Martini in all its glorious goodness! This recipe serves up one generous mocktail, but feel free to ramp up the quantities for a crowd-pleasing pitcher version. Trust me, this unexpected twist on the classic martini is guaranteed to be a hit at your next gathering. Cheers to sipping in style!
