• 474 ml (16 oz) capacity glass jar with lid, tumbler, or cocktail shaker

Enjoy!

Yields: 8-10 oz; about 2 servings.

Notes

Since the ice cubes are heavier, I recommend putting them into the jar first, then add the matcha. This will help you avoid a matcha cloud or an accidental splash.

If you don’t have a mason jar, a tumbler, or cocktail shaker will work too!

Story

Matcha cold brew is quick and easy to make—perfect for a hot summer day. This recipe is inspired by the first matcha cold brew I tried at Front Coffee + Café. They served it in a mason jar with a beautiful large hand-cut ice cube. This inspired me to buy a special clear ice tray to make my own giant ice cubes at home.

I’d love to see your cold brew on Instagram or Twitter—please use my hashtag #mostlymatchablog or leave a comment below.

Thank you and matcha (cold brew) cheers,
