TIPS

Here are some helpful tips for Vibrant Matcha And Mint Focus Energising Tea:

• Use Cooler Water: Avoid boiling water directly on matcha to maintain its delicate flavour and nutrient content.
• Sift The Matcha: This helps dissolve the powder evenly and prevents lumps from forming.
• Whisk In A W Motion: This technique creates a frothy top layer and better integration.
• Use Fresh Mint: Always use fresh and bright-green mint leaves for the best aroma and taste.

VARIATIONS

• Citrus Zest Twist: Add a thin slice of lemon or orange peel to enhance brightness.
• Mint-Matcha Iced Latte: Mix in chilled plant-based milk and a dash of vanilla.
• Sweetened Option: Add a teaspoon of maple syrup or honey for a lightly sweetened finish.
• Spiced Version: A pinch of cinnamon or cardamom introduces warm and earthy notes.

PREPPING AND STORAGE

• Refrigeration: Store brewed tea in a sealed glass jar or bottle for up to 24 hours.
• Chilled Matcha: Brew ahead and store in the refrigerator for a quick and cool pick-me-up.
• Freeze Into Cubes: Pour into an ice cube tray and freeze for mint-matcha ice cubes, perfect for flavoured water or smoothies.
• Batch Preparation: Triple the quantity and blend for use throughout the day, especially in summer.
