## Ingredients

- 2 g matcha
- 30 ml water, at about 80 °C
- 150 ml tonic water, chilled
- A glass of ice
- Lemon, lime, grapefruit or yuzu (optional)

## Steps

1. **Sift 2 g into the bowl.** Through a fine sieve so nothing clumps.
2. **Add 30 ml at 80 °C.** Pour in a thin stream around the powder.
3. **Whisk the shot.** Fast W strokes until smooth.
4. **Pour over tonic.** Fill a glass with ice and tonic water, then pour the shot in slowly so it doesn't fizz over.

Tonic's bitterness and fizz make a sharp, bright drink. Pour the matcha last and slowly: it can foam up when it meets the bubbles.

## Make it yours

- **Less bitter:** use half tonic, half sparkling water.
- **Citrus:** a squeeze of lemon or yuzu in the glass before the tonic.
