Cooking Tips:
Use ceremonial or culinary-grade matcha depending on your flavor preference—ceremonial is smoother, while culinary is bolder.
Blend with frozen banana or a few ice cubes for a thicker, milkshake-like texture.
A splash of vanilla extract or a drizzle of honey can balance the matcha’s natural bitterness.
Serving Suggestions:
Sprinkle extra matcha powder or chia seeds on top for a pretty finish.
Serve it over ice in a mason jar with a wide straw for that café feel.
Pair with a light breakfast like toast or fruit for a complete start to your day.
Sip, savor, and feel the green energy kick in! If you give this shake a try, drop a comment and share your thoughts!
