This mocktail was born while I was experimenting with Key Lime LaCroix and matcha powder. Oh, it happened to be right before Halloween, thus the monster spin, haha.  

That being said, there’s nothing monstrous about the taste: it’s light and refreshing, gently sweet with a strong citrus-forward flavor. Plus, you get all the health perks of matcha but without any intense flavoring since the potent green tea powder is nicely camouflaged within the mix. This beverage is bubbly, BOOze-free and truly sublime. 😉

Give these a try: Orange-You-Scared Bevvie and Vampire Blood Mocktail!
