Lavender Matcha Lemonade for St. Patrick's Day

A Lucky Sip 

Green drinks are a given on St. Patrick’s Day—but this year, we’re taking it up a notch. Enter Lavender Matcha Lemonade: an earthy, floral, and citrusy twist that feels just as festive as it is refreshing.

Mighty Leaf matcha brings its signature vibrance, lemonade adds a zesty brightness, a touch of lavender infuses an unexpected layer of elegance, and sparkling water lends little extra sparkle to your St. Paddy’s sip.

Whether you're raising a glass to good luck, good company, or just good taste, this is a sip worth celebrating.
