How To Drink Matcha


There are hundreds of ways to enjoy this green tea super food. Let's go over the main few.


Ceremonial Matcha Tea


The simplest and purest way to enjoy matcha.


What you need:

  • 1-2 scoops of Ceremonial matcha powder

  • Hot water

  • Bamboo whisk

Preparation:

  1. Heat water to between 158F (70C) to 176F (80C). For a softer more mellow flavor opt for the former temperature. If you don't have a temperature controlled kettle, boil the water and let it sit for roughly 10-15 minutes. If the water is too hot you will burn the matcha as it is very delicate.

  2. Take a scoop or two of ceremonial matcha and place it into a bowl.

  3. Pour about 2 oz of the heated water into the bowl with the matcha.

  4. Whisk the matcha with the water in the bowl for about 20 seconds making an "M" back and forth until the matcha is properly aerated and has a creamy foam over the top.

  5. Add more hot water until desired

  6. Sip and enjoy!
