Ewa drank Ceremonial Grade DoMatcha by DoMatcha

Tried the Jade Lemonade again with more matcha (because sleep is for losers!) and adding soda water so: 3/4 tsp matcha, 6 oz lemonade, 4 oz soda water.

NOM NOM NOM, Houston, we have delicious! So cool and refreshing with just the right amount of tang! It’s like a lighter, sippier version of the Odwalla juice thing I made a bit ago. Of course, now I have the problem of convincing myself that I don’t want to keep drinking this all day. What with wanting to get to sleep SOME time and all.

Swap the lemon for lime, steep some mint water, let cool, add matcha (and rum if desired) for a Matcha mojito!:)

Ewa 2010-05-23 19:50:44 -0400

JonTea 2010-05-23 19:53:32 -0400

Cofftea 2010-05-23 20:04:32 -0400

Heck I bet even white wine would do the trick. Matcha blini or mimosa?

Ewa 2010-05-23 20:15:59 -0400

…I am starting to think this is some sort of plot to get me drunk.

Cofftea 2010-05-23 20:20:15 -0400

Nah, just party ideas! Some people find it hard to make matcha converts of people, but put some alcohol in it and maybe some fruit and you’ll have them hooked:) I don’t have any vodka, but I’m thinking using OJ instead of the water, a lil vodka and doing matcha screwdriver shots. Equal parts vodka, milk, and OJ for dreamsicles?

Ewa 2010-05-23 20:22:15 -0400

mmm, sounds good. As soon as I can convince myself to actually spend the money on non-terrible vodka I need to try that.

Cofftea 2010-05-23 20:25:17 -0400

It’s so nasty hot here I think I’m gonna make a dreamsicle matcha shake tonite.

Bio

I’m a Pole who grew up in Texas, is currently a graduate student in California studying Japan. How’s THAT for random?

Being Polish, my family has always drunk a lot of tea, and I am no different. I may drink more tea than water. On the other hand, I can’t say that I’m very particular about it; I’m generally pretty careless with steeping times and water temperature and I don’t even have a proper teapot (mostly because the lid broke during the move to California ;_;).

I always drink my tea unsweetened and I only add milk in the case of the most egregiously chai-ish of chais. (not really a big fan of milk in general)

Given that so many of my entries seem to be about my morning tea, I felt I should add something here about me and mornings: I fail at mornings. I fail at them a LOT. Therefore I often also fail at proper tea making in the mornings.
