I am not a coffee drinker. • It’s not anything personal, not because of health reasons, just because I don’t like it. 🤣🫣 • And I’m also not an alcohol drinker. • This is for personal reasons. I’m a maximalist and want it all or nothing. • So drinking and me don’t get along 🤣, and therefore I have been sober nearly a decade. • But what I AM- is a girl who still loves an intentionally crafted drink. • I love beverages! And I love to feel special. • I was a bartender for many years, so I still enjoy crafting and creating drinks…but nowadays I’m experimenting with less alcohol and more with teas and juices. • And this cute layered one I’ve been on for a while now! • This Raspberry Orange Matcha Latte is so bright and is also a bit sweet and a bit tart and oh so refreshing! • I absolutely LOVE this drink and this is how I make it if you’d like to, as well! • Grab a special glass, because that adds to the entire experience, and fill it with ice to the top (always do this for iced “mocktails” #bartending101) • Layer in your raspberry syrup first (since it’s the heaviest), then the orange juice, then top with matcha tea! • A third of each and that’s it! • Imagine the swaps you could do and the flavor combinations you could build off of from this one drink! • I make my own syrups just by reducing berries in a heavy bottom stainless steel pan with a bit of maple syrup (or sugar!). Or you can buy one too! • Cheers to sobriety! It doesn’t have to be boring!
