Notes

How to choose a quality matcha:
  • High quality matcha is bright green in color and has a less bitter taste.
  • It’s worth the money to choose a high quality matcha. It’s normal for it to cost $20 or more for a small amount of matcha.
  • Matcha recipes always need some sort of sweetener—my favorite is honey or agave.
  • I use the brand MatchaBar, which you can purchase on Amazon.
