3 Matcha Drinks to Try

Matcha is known for its unmistakable green color and earthy flavor. When combined with milk and sweetener, it makes for the perfect coffee shop purchase. The Tucker&Co. staff highly endorses matcha and can be seen regularly enjoy their iced drink before, during, and/or after their shifts.

We offer three matcha drinks on the menu, Classic Matcha, Mountains & Waves, and the newly added Maui Matcha.

Classic Matcha - We start by mixing matcha powder with a tablespoon of honey and a splash of hot water to incorporate the ingredients. Honey sweetens the matcha without detracting from the natural earthy flavor. Once it has been mixed completely to dissolve the powder, we add it to your choice of milk. This drink can be enjoyed hot or iced. (We prefer iced!)

Mountains & Waves - This is our signature café drink, made with matcha, honey lavender simple syrup, and butterfly pea powder. Using a similar technique from the classic matcha, hot water is used to dissolve the powders, one at a time. A clear cup is filled with ice and your choice of milk, then we add the green matcha mixture followed by the "blue matcha" which is layered on top. As the mixtures combine, you can see them floating towards each other, like mountains and waves meeting in a cup. This drink is served iced.

Maui Matcha - Our most recent take on matcha, this drink has everything you love about matcha with a new syrup, honey hibiscus. Perfect for the warmer summer days that are ahead! You can enjoy it hot, but we recommend iced!

While National Matcha Day was May 2nd, it's not too late to stop in and celebrate by getting a delicious matcha at the café!
