Iced Green Tea with Mandarin Simple Syrup

Hi Bakers,

I know this isn't a bake but it is my new favorite drink so I had to share it! Sweet mandarin orange and freshly squeezed lemon meld perfectly with earthy matcha in this beautifully colored drink. Love citrus? Love green tea? Try this delicious iced tea with the goodness of both to start your day ~Carolyn 

Iced Green Tea with Mandarin Simple Syrup

Brew one cup of @rishi Matcha Super Green Tea or other light green tea. Fill a large glass with ice, and drizzle with a few tablespoons of the Mandarin orange syrup* over the ice. Squeeze a tablespoon of fresh lemon juice into the glass. Pour matcha tea over the ice and syrup. Garnish with a slice of fruit, stir, and enjoy!  

* Mandarin Orange Simple Syrup

1 cup sugar

1 cup mandarin orange juice
