Matcha Martini 

The Matcha Martini is the perfect blend of sophistication and calm; it is bold, elegant, and effortlessly refreshing. This recipe embodies the mindful twist that we at Bree Matcha love to add to classic cocktails. Its vivid green color and smooth, velvety flavor, which come from the use of Ceremonial Matcha, instantly make any evening more special, whether you choose to drink it as a mocktail without alcohol or mix it with a little spirit.

(If you prefer an alcoholic version, this recipe also pairs beautifully with vodka, gin, or sake, making it a unique Matcha Martini Cocktail.)
