This vibrant spice combines the earthy goodness of premium matcha green tea with lime zest and fresh mint, all muddled together to create a refreshing blend.

Collect all ingredients: premium matcha green tea, lime zest, fresh mint leaves, and any additional salt you wish to combine.

Gather Ingredients

Using a microplane or zester, carefully zest the lime, ensuring you only take the green outer layer and avoid the bitter white pith.

Prepare the Lime Zest

Rinse fresh mint leaves under cold water, pat them dry with a paper towel, and remove the stems.

Wash and Prepare Mint

In a small mixing bowl or mortar and pestle, combine the lime zest and fresh mint leaves. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently press and twist the mint and zest together to release their oils and flavors.

Muddle Mint and Zest

Add the premium matcha green tea to the muddled mint and lime zest mixture. Stir gently to ensure the matcha is evenly distributed.

Incorporate Matcha

Add your desired amount of salt to the mixture, stirring well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.

Combine with Salt

Transfer the green tea salt blend into an airtight container. Store in a cool, dry place to maintain freshness.
