Green Tea Latte

        Powdered Green Tea (Matcha)
        Milk
        Sweetener of choice  (sugar, syrup, honey, sugar substitute, etc)


With all the many health benefits of green tea, this drink is a great addition to any day!  Serve hot or cold, strong or weak, sweet or not so sweet....make it to your taste!  

Be sure to get matcha powdered green tea.  It is the consistency of powdered sugar but green.  Usual green tea leaves will not work.  You can find matcha in your local asian market. 

If you are using real sugar for the sweetener, heat milk and dissolve sugar first.  then add the matcha and mix.  Simple!  Sugar substitute or honey can be used as well.  Great for diabetics or dieters.

Lemonade

I got this recipe from http://www.whatscookingamerica.com/

You can make the simple syrup and add just about anything to it to make a tasty drink, so it doesnt neccessarily need to be lemonade (i like to put some fresh strawberries, some cherries, or limes in it too..)

Pepare a simple syrup:
1 cup sugar
1 cup water

Combine in a saucepan and boil for 5 minutes, without stirring.
Remove from heat and let cool before using.

Then add:
Juice of 6 freshly squeezed lemons (1 cup)
4 cups cold water
1 sliced lemon, for garnish and icecubes enjoy :)
