Creamy Matcha Martini
This Creamy Matcha Martini is the ultimate indulgent cocktail. With the earthy flavor of matcha, the sweetness of white chocolate liqueur, and the creamy richness of heavy cream, this drink is perfect for dinner parties, brunch, or a quiet night in. It’s easy to make, looks stunning, and tastes even better.
Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon matcha powder
- 2 ounces vodka
- 1 ounce white chocolate liqueur
- 1 ounce heavy cream or coconut cream for dairy-free
- 1 teaspoon simple syrup optional
- Ice a handful
- Matcha powder or white chocolate shavings for garnish
Instructions
- In a small bowl or mug, whisk 1 teaspoon of matcha powder with 1 tablespoon of hot water (not boiling) until smooth and lump-free.
- Fill a cocktail shaker with a handful of ice to chill the drink.
- Add the prepared matcha paste, vodka, white chocolate liqueur, heavy cream, and optional simple syrup into the shaker.
- Seal the shaker and shake vigorously for 20–30 seconds. This chills the drink, mixes the ingredients, and froths the cream slightly.
- Strain the cocktail into a chilled martini or coupe glass using a fine-mesh strainer for a silky texture.
- Dust a pinch of sifted matcha powder on top or add white chocolate shavings for a decorative touch.
- Enjoy!
