For the February sipdown prompt, “A tea gifted to you.” I received this from Todd over the last holiday season. Thank you, Todd!

I now keep a bag of culinary matcha in my cupboard at all times since I put it in my breakfast smoothie every morning. I am on a 3-month “auto” reorder with Mizuba, but this month the timing is such that I ran out a day before the new bag would arrive. So, I pulled out this Sakura Matcha to make my breakfast smoothie today!

1 cup vanilla almond milk, 1 cup frozen strawberries, 1 tsp sakura matcha powder, 3 TBS yogurt, blended. It’s great! It has that nice, authentic sakura flavor, that is a bit of a cross between floral/cherry/umami that is hard to describe, and is lacking added sugars or salts, which makes the matcha pretty flexible for its use. I never taste the actual matcha flavor in my smoothies (I add it for the caffeine boost!), but I definitely taste the sakura along with the strawberries!

…I’ve been drinking a lot of sakura tea lately, and I’m still a month away from its season. Obviously I’m ready for spring now.

It feels like spring here now, highs in the 70s! (lower 20s C)
I’m glad you like it! Sakura and strawberry sound great together!
