welp, I’ve decided to get into drinking matcha again. The bag has expired and is a dark mung bean green rather than the bright green it should be… but according to my research / looking it up, this is fine as long as there is no mold. I also don’t know where that bamboo whisk went to, but really the most crucial tool is the little mesh sifter to sift the powder so it doesn’t clump. 🍵 #teastr image

I'm on and off with matcha. Did some research into good brands a while back but never pulled the trigger on a new batch. What brand are you using?
I got into it again cuz I was reading how it’s both calming *and* energizing. And it really does… even on hot heat wave days.
I used to do that but switched to bamboo whisk and mix it vigorously with just a little water then add more. image
oh and I don’t really have a brand to recommend… the current one was bought from a Japanese tea store. I’m planning on searching on Amazon for organic, ceremonial grade… then filter results by bestselling, and look for reviews with photos that talk about a bright green color. 😌🤷🏻‍♀️ hope you find one you like image
