Coconut Matcha Sour

A smooth, spirit-free mix.
This spirit-free sour taps the textural qualities contributed by fresh egg white (bolstered by coconut water’s dissolved solids) and matcha’s earthy aromatics to make an easy-drinking mix.
Ingredients
- 2 oz. coconut water
- 3/4 oz. fresh lime juice
- 3/4 oz. simple syrup (1:1)
- 1 fresh egg white (pasteurized if you like)
- Tools:shaker, strainer, fine strainer, immersion blender (optional)
- Glass:sour glass or coupe
- Garnish:matcha powder
Preparation
Combine all of the ingredients in a shaker and blend with an immersion blender until the mixture is very foamy. (Alternatively, shake all of the ingredients without ice until the mixture foams.) Add ice and shake again until chilled, then strain into a chilled glass. Using a fine-mesh strainer, lightly dust the drink’s surface with matcha.
