Match Green Tea Shots

I'm in love with Matcha, not only because of antioxidants or because it has two amino acids (theophylline and L-theanine), which both have an energizing and calming effect (which explains why Buddhist monks have been drinking Matcha for centuries!)

I really just love the taste of Matcha, more than I enjoy drinking a regular cup of green tea. Because it is a fine powder form of the tea leaf, it dissolves quickly into anything you put it in, hot or cold, so if I want to drink it cold, I just mix it in – no heating required!

This is so easy and only takes 1 minute to make. I combine the sweet vanilla Almond Breeze almond milk and Matcha powder – then shake, shake, shake! That is it! You can even use unsweetened almond milk and a few drops of stevia.

For a quick afternoon, pick me up, rather than arrive for a cup of coffee (which I prefer to drink in the morning) I go for Matcha instead. It's the perfect pick up without jitters.
