I can’t tell you how many times I’ve sipped on this Raspberry Matcha Fizz while enjoying a sunny afternoon on my porch.
It’s not just a drink; it’s a little ritual that brings me joy and a moment of calm amidst the chaos of everyday life.
Plus, the vibrant green and pink colors always make me smile!
A tip?
Use fresh raspberries when you can – they make all the difference in flavor and freshness.

Ingredients & Substitutions
Fresh raspberries are the star here, so opt for those if you can. If they're out of season, frozen raspberries work too; just let them thaw a bit before blending. For the matcha, I love using ceremonial grade for the best flavor, but culinary grade will also work in a pinch.
Tips & Notes
- •I keep my matcha in an airtight container in the fridge to keep it fresh for longer.
- •If you want a creamier texture, try adding a splash of your favorite plant-based milk after you’ve mixed in the sparkling water.
Recipe Variations
- •Sometimes, I’ll add a few mint leaves to the blender for a refreshing twist.
- •If I'm feeling adventurous, I’ll swap out raspberries for blueberries or strawberries!
Storage & Freezing
This drink is best enjoyed fresh, but you can keep any leftovers in the fridge for up to a day. Just give it a gentle stir before enjoying again, as the matcha may settle.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use a sweetener other than maple syrup?
Absolutely! You can use agave nectar or even a bit of stevia if you prefer something without calories. Just adjust the amount to your taste.
