Introducing the Matcha Mojito — Our New Sunshine Special

With a heatwave on the horizon, we've been busy updating our Sunshine Specials menu and we're pretty excited about this one. Say hello to the Matcha Mojito Mocktail: vibrant, citrusy, refreshing, and exactly what a warm Oxford afternoon calls for.

Made with Canton Tea matcha, fresh mint, lime juice, sugar syrup and soda water over ice, it's the kind of drink that makes you feel like summer has properly arrived. Who said that's just for iced coffee?

You can order one in any of our cafes, or if you fancy making your own at home, here's how we do it:

Matcha Mojito Mocktail

Ingredients

  • 3.5g matcha
  • 1 lime
  • 10 mint leaves
  • 25ml sugar syrup
  • 150ml soda water

Method

  1. Whisk the matcha with hot water to make a smooth concentrate.
  2. Cut a lime wheel for garnish.
  3. "Slap" the mint leaves and add them to the glass.
  4. Fill the glass with ice.
  5. Add the sugar syrup.
  6. Squeeze in the juice from both lime halves.
  7. Top with soda water, leaving a 1cm gap.
  8. Gently pour the matcha over the back of a spoon to create a layered effect.
  9. Stir gently to integrate.
  10. Garnish with the lime wheel and enjoy.
