WARM AND SOOTHING TO THE SOUL

 

A matcha a day keeps the stress away! Well, not really but we give it an A plus for its taste and health benefits. Matcha is a type of powdered green tea that is produced in Japan. The powder can then be used to brew an antioxidant rich frothy green tea or in recipes like smoothies or baking. We love the bright green color it has and the soothing feeling we get from drinking it. Enjoy it in the beginning of the day or in the evening before bed.
