About this product
Japanese Matcha Design Pouch contains finely ground green tea powder made from tea leaves grown in Japan. The matcha comes in a colourful, resealable pouch with a Japanese illustration. Matcha has been used in Japanese tea culture for centuries, especially during tea ceremonies. Because you drink the whole leaf, you use the entire leaf.
Usage and preparation
Use the matcha to make matcha tea or as an ingredient in lattes, smoothies and baked goods. About 2 g is usually enough for one cup of matcha or one matcha latte.
- Put 2 g of matcha in a bowl or cup.
- Add 60–80 ml of hot water (approx. 70–80 °C).
- Whisk with a bamboo whisk (chasen) until you have a smooth, frothy tea.
- For a matcha latte: first dissolve the matcha in a little hot water, then top up with warm (plant-based) milk.
