Today is both #31daysofhallotean and #matchamonday on instagram and the prompt for the former is all about a pick-me-up tea. That seemed to align pretty perfectly with the latter seeing as matcha really is one of the best pick-me-ups in the tea world. I decided to have a bit of fun though and use this matcha in a matcha frappuccino (recipe: https://www.ohhowcivilized.com/matcha-green-tea-frappuccino/).
While the frappuccino was alright overall, I didn’t really taste the matcha. What I did taste was the sweetened condensed milk. So, not bad by any means but definitely just sweet and creamy and not much else. Looked nice enough though: https://www.instagram.com/p/CGQd3wJAx9P/

That looks really tasty!
Thank you. If I am being honest, I genuinely think a plain matcha would have been better though. The mocha matcha is sweeetened and then mixed with the sweetened condensed milk it was too much. Plain matcha may have cut that a little
