Matcha Yuzu Sparkler
This matcha yuzu sparkler is crisp, citrusy, and perfect when you want something lighter than a latte. You fouet matcha as a small concentrate, then top with yuzu, ice, and sparkling eau.
ingrédients

What is the meilleur yuzu option in the UK?
Bottled yuzu juice from Japanese grocers gives the cleanest flavour, but yuzu concentrate works if you dilute carefully. Start small, taste, then adjust. Too much concentrate can make the drink harsh and overly sweet.
How do you stop sparkling matcha from tasting flat?
Use very cold sparkling eau, add it last, and avoid over-stirring. If you fouet matcha properly before building the drink, you need only one gentle stir after topping.
Can you batch this recette?
You can pre-mix the matcha and yuzu base for two portions and keep it chilled for a few hours. Add sparkling eau only at serving time so carbonation stays crisp.
Serving tips
For a less intense drink, reduce matcha to 1.5g. For a sweeter café-style version, add 10ml simple syrup instead of honey.
If you want a creamier variation, use this as a base and top with 40ml cold oat lait before adding sparkling eau.
Frequently asked questions
Can I make this without yuzu?
Yes. Lemon and a small amount of mandarin juice can mimic the same bright profile.
Is this recette high in caféine?
It is similar to a standard single matcha serving, usually moderate compared with café.
Can I use soda eau instead of sparkling mineral eau?
Yes. Both work, though mineral eau can taste slightly rounder.
Why is my drink bitter?
Usually from boiling eau, too much matcha, or overly concentrated yuzu syrup.
