Alana237 drank Matcha by Vitalife Matcha

I was inspired by the matcha recipes thread on the discussion page, so I made banana matcha smoothie with this:

4 bananas
1 and a half kiwi fruit
100ml milk
3 tablespoons honey
Handful of ice

It was delish! I’m freezing some for later because I made quite a lot too much (I had to use all the fruit that was getting a bit overripe) so I’ll see how that is.

how much matcha did you use? I’m a total matcha rookie but am trying to get more into it…

Oh no! I forgot to put the matcha! I used 3tsp, but I think I was a little too enthusiastic and I would probably say 2tsp would be about right.

Cool, thanks. :)

1 TB is a lot of matcha… it’s a good thing you didn’t drink it all at once lol.

I probably got about 5 servings out of it and I haven’t had most of it yet so I don’t get a caffeine overload.

Bio

My love of tea began when I walked into a shop one day and they were giving out samples of jasmine silver needles. It was absolutely gorgeous, and I have been addicted to tea ever since. Jasmine silver needles remains my favourite tea to this day.

I think my favourite types are white teas and oolongs, though I will pretty much drink anything.

Aside from tea, I’m into Star Wars, music, furniture, food, Lilly Dache hats and vintage clothing.
