Matcha is one of the healthiest Teas you can drink, because you're drinking the entire leaf, not just the liquid made from it. Matcha is also used extensively in cooking - Greet Tea Ice Cream, biscuits, smoothies, cakes and other "Green Tea" foods & drinks are made using matcha. There are 2 different styles of brewed matcha - thin & thick - our Matcha can be used to make both. Usucha, or thin tea, is prepared with half a teaspoon of matcha and approximately 2.5 to 3 oz of 140º to 160ºF water. It is then either whisked to produce froth or not, according to the drinker's preference (or to the traditions of the particular school of tea). Usucha creates a lighter and slightly more bitter tea. Koicha, or thick tea, requires significantly more matcha, as many as six teaspoons to 6oz (3/4 cup) of of 140º to 160ºF water. Because the resulting mixture is significantly thicker, blending it requires a slower, stirring motion which does not produce foam. Koicha produces a sweeter tea, and is served almost exclusively as part of Japanese tea ceremonies. Caffeine: 20 mg / 6 oz cup.
