Tealife Recipes

I love Matcha so much that I try to drink every chance I get! Because of my dedication to this drink, I've ended up drinking Matcha latte in many different cafe's in Singapore. Unfortunately, I must say that I have been disappointed by most of them.

Matcha is one of those drinks that you never really have an "in-between". It's like a sashimi. It's either really good, or it's really bad. Even if you like sashimi, you'd want to keep as far a distance as possible from the bad ones. Matcha is exactly the same.

Unfortunately the Matcha used in many cafes around Singapore are really not up to standards. If you would like to try Matcha latte, by far the best way is to buy good quality Matcha, and make it yourself. You'll be amazed at how wonderfully delicious this refreshing drink actually is.

As with all of my other recipes, I'm using the Aoarashi Matcha from Marukyu Koyamaen for this as well. It's a good solid Matcha for all cooking needs. It gives it the great rich taste of Matcha as well as a nice vibrant green color. However, when I'd like to treat myself, I would use Marukyu Koyamaen's Unkaku. It really makes for an unbelievably pleasurable drink.

It's been hot these couple of days. You deserve a quality cold drink to awaken your cells. Give the Iced Matcha latte using one of Koyamaen's Matcha a try!
