A Refreshing Twist: Matcha Beer with Matcha Premium
Hello everyone 😊 This is Keko from our online team.
Today, I’m sharing something unexpected—but surprisingly delightful: Matcha Beer!
Yes, you read that right. We’ve paired our finest matcha with a crisp, cold beer, and the result is a refreshing, savory-sweet drink that’s perfect for a summer afternoon or a casual get-together.
This recipe uses Matcha Premium, our highest-grade culinary matcha that boasts intense umami, refined sweetness, and vibrant green color. Even in beer, its flavor stays rich and distinct.
🍃 Matcha Beer Recipe
| Ingredients (for 1 serving) Matcha Premium (culinary grade): ½ tsp (about 1g) Hot water (80–90°C): 30ml Cold beer (Pilsner or light lager): 200ml |
🧑🍳 Instructions
1️⃣ Prepare the matcha
Sift the matcha to remove any clumps. Add 30ml of hot water and whisk well with a chasen (bamboo whisk) or spoon until smooth and frothy.
2️⃣ Combine with beer
Pour the matcha into a glass. Slowly pour in the cold beer, letting it run down the inside of the glass to minimize foaming.
3️⃣ Stir and finish
If the matcha settles at the bottom, gently stir with a straw or stirrer to blend.
✅ Tips
Whisking thoroughly helps create a smooth foam and bright green hue.
Always use well-chilled beer to preserve the contrast of color and flavor.
Add a sprig of mint or a pinch of matcha salt on the rim for extra aroma and presentation.
Whether you're a matcha lover or a craft beer fan, this Matcha Beer is sure to surprise and refresh. Give it a try and impress your guests with this Japanese twist on your next summer drink. Cheers 🍻
