2. Prep your Matcha
Squeeze the lemons and lime and set aside, you’ll be adding the juice to your Matcha powder.
Place in a small bowl 2 teaspoons of Matcha powder and add your fresh lemon or lime juice.
(Matcha clumps very easily, so is best to sift it before you add the juice)
Whisk the powder and the juice with a Matcha whisker in a zigzag pattern to create a little foam.
3. Prep your Shaker

Add 4 oz of mezcal
2 oz of cointreau
