Frequently Asked Questions
What is Iced Yuzu Matcha?
Iced Yuzu Matcha is a Japanese beverage consisting of whisked matcha green tea combined with citrusy yuzu juice and served over ice. It is typically consumed as a refreshing, chilled drink during warm weather.
Can I use hot water for the whole drink?
This is specifically an iced version, but you can skip the ice for a hot Yuzu Matcha.
What if I don't have a bamboo whisk?
You can use a small milk frother or a fork, though the foam may not be as fine and creamy.
Is Yuzu juice sweet or sour?
Pure Yuzu juice is very tart and acidic, so you may add a teaspoon of honey if you prefer sweetness.
Can I substitute lime?
Lime is more acidic and sharp, but it is a decent substitute if Yuzu is unavailable.
