What You Need
1/4 Lemon
Butterfly Pea Tea, brewed and cooled
Citrus ice (I use orange and lemon juice)
1 tsp. of Bonsai Cha Kogane matcha
1 oz. of water
Your Bonsai Cha Matcha Maker
2 tsp. of sugar (or to taste)
How to Make It
Step 1: Make your Citrus Ice. Fill an ice cube tray with lemon and orange juice, freeze, then top with water and freeze until firm.
Step 2: Brew your butterfly pea tea as directed and chill.
Step 3: Once your butterfly pea tea is chilled, fill a glass with your Citrus ice, then pour over the chilled butterfly pea tea.
Step 4: This is where the magic happens...! Squeeze your lemon over top and watch the colour change from blue to purple! If you like your lemonade sweet, stir in 2 tsp. of sugar or to taste.
Step 5: Add 1 oz. of water to your Bonsai Cha matcha maker and 1 scoop of Kogane matcha. Press twice to blend on the cold setting. Pour over top and enjoy!
