How to make it

6 STEPS · ~6 MIN
  1. 01
    Bloom the matcha
    Whisk 4 g matcha powder into a small splash of the whiskey until a smooth paste forms with no lumps. A chasen helps.
  2. 02
    Combine the base
    Add the matcha paste back to the remaining whiskey along with 2.5 oz simple syrup, 2 oz yuzu, 1.8 oz lemon. Whisk again until uniformly green.
  3. 03
    Clarify with milk
    Pour the matcha base slowly into 3.5 oz whole milk. The proteins curdle and bind the matcha sediment.
  4. 04
    Rest
    Cover, refrigerate at 4 °C for at least 12 hours; 24 hours is better.
  5. 05
    Double strain
    Cheesecloth, then coffee filter. The liquid should pour clear with a faint sage tint.
  6. 06
    Service
    Serve in a coupe (or over a single large cube). Dust the rim with a pinch of matcha or thread a small yuzu peel.
