Matcha (Green Tea) Soda

A refreshing matcha soda for all green tea lovers. Fizzy water meets matcha syrup to create this bubbly tea drink.

Matcha soda is just matcha simple syrup with carbonated, bubbly water.

Making the matcha simple syrup takes about five minutes. It’s putting water and sugar on heat until the sugar completely dissolves. Then the matcha is sifted and stirred in.

You may want to make the matcha syrup ahead of time since it’ll take a little bit to cool it down.

Ingredients: Water, Sugar, Matcha and Soda / Sparkling Water.

Step 1: Make simple syrup.

Make simple syrup by adding sugar and water into a saucepan and bringing it to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from heat.

Step 2: Add Matcha.

Stir in sifted matcha into the simple syrup. Let it cool completely.

Step 3: Pour and enjoy.

Fill two cups with ice. Pour in matcha syrup, dividing it evenly into the two cups. Fill each cup to the top with soda or sparkling water.

Matcha tends to clump

Always add the water first before the matcha. It’s important to shake the matcha with water vigorously to break up any clumps. 

Use unsweetened matcha

Make sure the matcha you’re using isn’t sweetened since it won’t layer on top of the milk.

No need for a matcha whisk if you shake

It’s easier to shake matcha and water together than whisking cold water into matcha. There’s no need to sift the matcha if you shake vigorously.

Matcha is meant to be had with something sweet

Traditionally, matcha whisked in hot water is served with wagashi, a sweet Japanese confection. So it’s no wonder adding something sweet to an iced matcha latte makes it taste even better.
