# Additional Tips::

01 -
  • It tastes like you've spent hours perfecting your craft when it actually takes five minutes flat.
  • The creamy texture feels luxurious and indulgent, perfect for impressing people or treating yourself on a quiet night.
  • Matcha gives you a gentle caffeine lift without the jittery feeling regular espresso martinis sometimes bring.
02 -
  • If you skip the sifting step, you will taste the regret—little gritty bits of unmixed matcha are bitter and unpleasant, so those thirty seconds are non-negotiable.
  • The cream is not optional for texture; even a little transforms this from a thin green cocktail into something lush and sophisticated.
03 -
  • Chill your martini glass in the freezer for at least five minutes before you start shaking—this small act extends the cold life of your cocktail significantly.
  • If you find yourself making these regularly, whisk your matcha powder with a tiny splash of warm water first to create a paste, then add everything else; it blends more smoothly and prevents any gritty texture.
