Is matcha your go-to drink wherever you are? If yes, have you ever enjoyed matcha that you freshly made while seated on a plane? That's exactly what content creator Alexandra Lourdes did aboard her flight. In a video that is making the rounds on social media, the woman is seen making the green tea drink mid-flight. It was her kind gesture towards the cabin crew that stole the limelight. The clip begins with Alexandra sitting in an economy seat when she asks for hot water from the flight attendant. Then, she takes out a bag of matcha and a brush. She starts to whisk the tea in a bowl. She again asks for a glass of ice cubes from the flight attendant and pours milk and water into it. Finally, she adds her whisked matcha concoction to the glass and takes a joyful sip.
In a lighthearted conversation with the flight attendant, Alexandra asks him, "Do you like matcha?" Beaming with enthusiasm, he replies, "I love matcha!" Alexandra makes another serving of the drink and offers it to the flight attendant. A few minutes later, he returns with a satisfied grin and says, "The matcha was so good."
