Festive Sparkling Matcha Green Tea

These Soar Organics sparkling matcha green tea beverages in two flavours are refreshing and delicious. Not only are they full of flavour, but they're perfect for autumn and winter festivities. With the drastic temperature change we've experienced in Canada (hello fall), we can't help but think of cozy nights spent inside with family, friends, food and fun drinks. If you're a matcha lover (like us) you'll love these sparkling matcha drinks!

With every recipe we prepare for you, we like to ensure we're including other healthy ingredients aside from our own matcha. When looking for a sparkling water, make sure to look for a sparkling water with a mineral content. Opting for sparkling mineral water will ensure you're getting that extra dose of necessary minerals, such as magnesium, potassium and sodium. Also, if you want to make your recipe sugar-free, simply leave out the raw sugar. Your beverages will still taste great!

Vegan-friendly, Gluten-free, Dairy-free and can easily be made Sugar-free. Recipe makes 1 medium glass.
