This is actually a sharedown. I had this one apparently and didn’t make a note. I think it must have been a latte.

Today we had a pallet of sod delivered and our next door neighbor came over to help us get it in place! He has been trying to find a green tea he likes but has been unsuccessful so far. It was really hot and hard work, so I went inside and made him a mason jar full of this, just 3/4 teaspoon or so shaken with ice in a jar of filtered water. He loved it! I sent him home with the jar, instructions, and the rest of the tin. He was promised a refill as well, because I have lots more matcha and I am so grateful for the help!

I want to try more matcha, but every time I make it I get tons of clumps :( I never thought of using a mason jar to shake it like a cocktail! will certainly try it :D

It is a great way to make it cold! One trick for hot or cold is to make a paste of matcha and cold water and then add your remaining hot or cold water and whisk. Or sifting before whisking could help, too!

thank you! your tricks will definitely be used soon :)

Bio

I am a music teacher, tutor, and former homeschool mom (25 years!) who started drinking loose leaf tea about fifteen years ago! My daughters and I have tea every day, and we are frequently joined by my students or friends for “tea time.” Now my hubby joins us, too. His tastes have evolved from Tetley with milk and sugar to mostly unadorned greens and oolongs.

We have learned so much history, geography, and culture in this journey.

My avatar is a mole in a teacup! Long story…
