What you will need: 

 

How to:

  • Begin by warming up your bowl and bamboo whisk with warm water. This will soften the bamboo and make it easier for you to whisk.
  • Dry the bowl thoroughly.
  • Add in your Matcha and Water, slowly incorporate the powder and water together.
  • Whisk with your wrist in a W/M zigzag motion until everything is well mixed and a generous layer of froth appears.
  • Enjoy immediately :)

 

Matcha in the morning gives you a caffeine boost which is sustained throughout the day as it is combined with L-theanine, a protein found in green tea. I enjoy my morning matcha with a dash of rice milk but you can enjoy it however you like :)
