Matcha is a form of green tea leaf that is grown under special conditions in Japan. The leaf is then ground to a fine powder. Because of the way it is grown, it retains a large amount of the chlorophyll absorbed by the leaf. It has the same amount of caffeine as green tea, so it is perfect for your morning pick-me-up!
This green tea powder was traditionally reserved for special ceremonies for royalty and Samurai warriors. For a special treat, find yourself a matcha bowl and whisk. Using this set treats your morning ritual like a ceremony, starting your day off right.
For warm, sunny days try this iced latte for your morning:
