How to make a Hojicha Ginger Soda
Our Hojicha Ginger Soda brings together bright, fiery ginger soda with a smooth, roasted Hojicha finish.
A warming kick from fresh ginger is balanced by bright citrus and gentle sweetness. The roasted Hojicha Powder adds a smooth, nutty depth, while the soda keeps the whole drink light and refreshing - it's delicious any time of day (and naturally low caffeine), we've been enjoying it as an 3pm pick-me-up.
What you need (per drink)
- 2g Good & Proper Hojicha Powder
- Bamboo Matcha whisk
- Chawan or Matcha bowl
