Powdered matcha tea for delicious cocktails and desserts. Matcha, or “mattya,” is a Japanese powdered green tea that is a classic for Japanese tea ceremonies. In early spring, delicate first leaves are harvested and after extensive preparation, they are ground into a fine powder.<\/p>\n
Its applications have expanded incredibly in modern times. Now, matcha is not only consumed in the traditional way, whisked with a special bamboo whisk, but also added to desserts, cocktails, and cosmetics.<\/p>\n
Matcha latte has gained particular popularity. It turns out that this beverage is as invigorating as coffee but healthier. Also, the tonic effect of matcha latte lasts longer than that of coffee.<\/p>\n
How to brew matcha green tea: Simply take 1.5 -2 grams of tea per cup. This is equivalent to 2 traditional measuring spoons – “chashaku.” Then, pour 60-80 ml of water cooled to 60-70\u00b0C and whisk the tea with a bamboo whisk until a thick foam appears. Instead of a whisk, you can also use a milk frother. Japanese matcha tea is ready to be enjoyed.<\/p>\n
Properties of matcha tea: Matcha is a rich source of antioxidants and polyphenols.
