Matcha reviews ✨🍵

This one is for all the matcha girlies & guys. Matcha has less caffeine than coffee which also means less jitters and anxiety if you’re prone to those things. I also feel a steady boost of energy with Matcha versus a big boost and then crash with coffee (also depends on how much sugar is in it). I know, I know a lot of people write matcha off as grass, but once you figure out the good kinds there is nothing better in my humble opinion. I wanna review store bought & online brands because those are accessible to everyone.

Pop & Bottle 8/10 (no refined sugar in these which is a plus) Peach was the best which surprised me, I didn’t know how well the flavors would blend, but it was so yummy , Strawberry is really good, Peppermint Mocha is okay. I would love if they came out with a lavender and blueberry one. (Found the regular one at Costco which is the best price I’ve seen for a pack of them!)

Jade Leaf Tea 7/10 - From amazon or Target - sweetened doesn’t need to add any sweeteners in my opinion. This is one of the best for homemade it’s just hard to mess it up.

Trader Joe’s Latte Mix 5.5/10 - Too many added ingredients, nice that you don’t need to add anything to it besides milk, but overall a bit too sweet.

MiaRoo Organic Matcha 0/10 - I feel bad saying this, but it wasn’t good at all. Very Dull. I think I just felt like a victim of scammy advertising because it was the worst one I’ve purchased. (This one was online). Maybe you would disagree, but definitely wouldn’t recommend or order again.

Quick Tips when looking for good matcha powder:

1. Look for a brighter green vs a dull one

2. Store bought pre-made ones can be a bit dull since they’ve been sitting for awhile, but still decent for a quick grab n go

3. I use a nutri-bullet to make mine at home because then you have no clumps or you could do the traditional way with the fancy whisk (cute sets on Etsy)

4. Almond Milk tastes best for homemade imo

5. Ceremonial = best for drinks Premium = pretty good for drinks

   Culinary = for baking

   Favorites to Order:

Lavender or blueberry cold foam with oat milk

Hot Coconut Milk Matcha

Organic matcha (if offered) with honey & almond milk

Matcha I want to try:

Everyday matcha - Can be found at local grocery store usually in a special aisle

Emma chamberlain - Might be overhyped

Naoki - Ceremonial Grade Matcha (found online)
