Mint, lime, and matcha walk into a glass.
An alcohol-free twist on the classic, this is all about fresh mint, zingy lime and plenty of fizz, with smooth matcha bringing it together. It is light, lively and looks fantastic, which makes it a brilliant one to serve when people come round.
Round of mocktails, anyone?
