    "excerpt": "A matcha cocktail shaken with vodka, fresh lime and agave, clean and grassy, with an easy alcohol-free swap.",
    "content_text": "Matcha makes a brilliant cocktail base: its grassy, slightly bitter edge stands up to spirits the way few teas can, and it lends a drink a lovely natural green colour with no syrup needed. Here it is shaken with vodka, fresh lime and a little agave into something clean and not too sweet, the sort of thing to serve before dinner. If you would rather skip the alcohol, swap the vodka for chilled tonic and it still works.\n\nSource: Teas.co.uk. UK independent tea specialist, Tunbridge Wells, Kent.
