My morning drink of choice! Feels so much more nourishing than coffee to start the day.

Curious, have you encountered any research about drinking it on an empty stomach (first thing in the morning) versus other times?

YES! Helps with my focus, mood, takes away any sugar cravings, makes my skin brighter, it’s incredible. I’ve been drinking it for the past 12 years.

Not just for tea. I have used matcha in my crème brûlée recipe before.

I can't wait for the recipes, Mary Ann! I just bought myself a frother, and a new matcha tea to try. I'm all in on the matcha train!

Mary Ann, I can attest to the take-the-edge-off properties of matcha. I owned a coffee shop during the pandemic and I enjoyed a matcha latte with oat milk and a little honey (extra hot) every afternoon during cool seasons and a matcha lemonade in the afternoons. YES -- it's the best kept tea secret out there! Cheers!

Me too! I actually own a coffee brand now, but I always have matcha in my cupboard!
