HERE'S WHAT YOU NEED FROM US TO GET STARTED
⬇⬇⬇
INGREDIENTS
(makes 2 servings)
4 oz white rum
3 oz hot water for matcha
8 oz water for Strawberry Mojito tea
¼ tsp. Matcha Powder
3 Tbsp. Orange Blossom Honey
4 Tbsp. Strawberry Mojito Green Tea
1 lime, juiced
raspberries
20 mint leaves
crushed ice
mint and lime wedges to garnish
**For an extra Irish feel, try subbing Irish Whiskey for rum.**
INSTRUCTIONS
- Heat water to 175 degrees (just before boiling) and add Matcha to hot water. Whisk until dissolved and stir in 1 Tbsp. of Orange Blossom Honey. Set aside and let cool in fridge.
- In a separate glass, add your Strawberry Mojito tea to an infuser and pour 8 ounces of hot water over the tea leaves. Steep for 5 minutes. Allow to cool in the fridge.
- Add 1 1/2 Tbsp. of honey and 10 mint leaves to each glass. Muddle mint leaves and Orange Blossom Honey.
- Juice ½ of a lime into each glass and muddle again until mint leaves are broken into smaller pieces. You should have a syrupy liquid!
- Once Matcha and your Strawberry Mojito has cooled a bit, add rum, Matcha, and tea to a cocktail shaker filled with ice. Shake for 30 seconds.
- Add crushed ice to each glass. Strain and pour ½ of rum mixture into each glass.
- Stir well and garnish with mint leaves, raspberries, and lime wedges.
