Ingredients:

Serving

1 cup ( generous ) ground shortbread cookies (about 6 oz)
2 8- oz packages cream cheese, room temperature ( do not use whipped or light products)
1/2 cup (packed) fromage blanc
3/4 cup plus 2 tbsp sugar
4 large eggs
2 tsp japanese green tea powder
2 1/2- pint containers fresh red raspberries
2 1/2- pint containers fresh golden raspberries
1 bunch fresh mint
boiling water

Directions:

For cake: Preheat oven to 325°F. Press cookie crumbs firmly onto bottom (not sides) of 8-inch-diameter springform pan. Wrap outside of pan tightly with 3 layers of heavy-duty foil. Using electric mixer, beat cream cheese, fromage blanc, and sugar in large bowl until smooth. Add eggs 1 at a time, beating until incorporated after each addition. Beat in green tea powder until smooth. Pour batter over prepared crust in pan. Place cakein roasting pan; add enough hot water to roasting pan to come halfway up sides of springform pan.
Bake cake until set but center moves very slightly when pan is gently shaken, about 1 hour. Remove cake from roasting pan; cool 1 hour at room temperature. Refrigerate uncovered overnight. (Can be prepared 2 days ahead. Cover and keep refrigerated.)
For tisane: Place 5 raspberries (mix of red and golden) and 3 mint leaves in each of 8 heatproof glasses. Fill glasses with boiling water; let steep 5 minutes.
Cut around pan sides to loosen cake; remove sides. Place cake on platter. Garnish cake with some raspberries. Cut cake into wedges. Serve each piece with a few raspberries and a glass of tisane.
*Fromage blanc is available at some supermarkets, cheese stores, and specialty foods stores.
**Green tea powder is available at Japanese markets.
Test-kitchen tip: The tisane doesn't really need sweetening, but serving it with rock candy swizzle sticks (available at candy stores and ) adds a touch of whimsy.
