Matcha is a powder that’s made of finely ground green tea leaves from the Camellia sinensis plant.
Matcha is grown differently from green tea. When growing matcha, the tea plants are shade-grown for about three to four weeks before harvest.
This process causes the plants to produce more caffeine and theanine, which results in matcha’s unique nutrient composition.
Matcha is typically stronger than regular green tea since it contains the whole tea leaf.
You can use matcha in teas, lattes, smoothies, and even baked goods!
Matcha Latte is made with a base of matcha powder whisked or mixed with hot water,
then topped with steamed milk (or oat, almond, etc.), just as when pouring a traditional espresso latte.
It is often sweetened with honey or agave, if it is sweetened at all.
