This Smoothie Bowl Will Make Others Green with Envy!
Super matcha -- it just has a ring, doesn't it?
Matcha is the finely ground powder of specially grown and processed green tea. But not just any green tea! Generally tea leaves are dried and then are steeped in hot water. But Matcha leaves are ground finely and so the powder includes the leaves themselves. And the Matcha tea leaves are grown differently than most tea leaves. They are covered with shade cloths before harvesting, which encourages better growth and flavor. After harvesting, the leaves are steamed lightly, dried, aged, and then stone-ground.
Matcha is considered a superfood, since it has lots of anti-oxidants. It is a great addition to smoothies, juices, and even guacamole!
