I had this today as a tea latte! 1 tsp matcha powder whisked into 1/4 cup of hot water (or so). I got a TONNE of wee bubbles on this, even though I have a weird ball-shaped whisk instead of a bamboo whisk. I then added 12 oz of hot almond milk, sipped, and made a HORRIBLE face!

I definitely prefer my matcha sweetened. It took 2 tsp of sugar to sweeten this to my liking. Wow.

I do like the flavour of this matcha, though. The quality is good, it’s super green in colour, and it’s not one of those anonymous (well, to me) packages of matcha I can get at the local Asian markets that might have been sitting on the shelf for ages. (No really. Some of the matcha I have is almost brown in comparison to how green this stuff is!)

The only thing I’m lacking to make it the perfect latte texture is pectin.

Preparation
