✨Matcha tasting time 🍵 This was a fun one! @ ✨Matcha tasting time 🍵 This was a fun one! @naokimatcha launched a very limited tasting set of 3 Matcha where only 1 will be added to their line. The blends are named after their region of origin: Uji, Wazuka and Nishio. It was really hard to pick a favorite because all 3 were delicious, fresh and good quality Matcha (#gifted). But overall my favorite was Uji Harmony: It was delightfully sweet, smooth but thick and creamy with little grassiness and a perfect umami balance. Its color is a bright, vibrant green that only reflect freshness and quality. The two other blends were excellent as well, I found the Wazuka blend great for beginners because it was less umami, smooth and ‘cleaner’. Have you tried any of these? (Get their Matcha tasting set with 20% off on their website)
I’ve been obsessed 🤩 about Nepalese Black tea I’ve been obsessed 🤩 about Nepalese Black teas lately, and when this came in the mail I was soooo happy!⠀ ⠀ I got a new #teasubscriptionbox to try (#gifted 🎁) and I was very excited about their concept. @atlasteaclub does monthly boxes focused on a single origin and aims to take the customer through a journey around the world 🌍. In my box came a Black tea, Kumari Gold (pictured) and a White tea. You can choose 1 or 2 teas with your subscription plan and each tea pouch contains fresh and good quality leaves 🌱 and a brewing guide. There’s also a beautiful postcard that comes in the box with information about the current month’s origin.⠀ ⠀ On to the tea ☕️ ➡️ This Kumari Gold was sweet and smooth with strong cooked fruit notes and some slight woodiness. It is delicate and elegant, like manny Nepalese Black teas.⠀ ⠀ If you haven’t tried Nepalese teas, I would recommend you to try its Black tea. (Try 190-195 F for 3.30 min)
Hi everyone! It’s been a while since I posted. I Hi everyone! It’s been a while since I posted. I recently moved to FL and that was my focus for a few months, so inevitably I went a little MIA… ⁣ ⁣ Anyway, I’m back with a super yummy recipe: White Chocolate Matcha Salami 🍵💚⁣ ⁣ Have you ever had chocolate Salami? If you haven’t, don’t worry, it doesn’t have any meat, it’s a dessert! It’s called salami because of its appearance ☺️. ⁣ ⁣ I took a classic and reinvented it with a favorite combo: Matcha and white chocolate. ⁣ It takes very little time to make and no baking is involved (just a little stovetop). I’m sure you’ll love it. ⁣ ⁣ ➡️ For the recipe, click the link in bio (pls tag me if you make it!)
I’m always happy to try new tea subscriptions, i I’m always happy to try new tea subscriptions, it’s so much fun! I especially appreciate those who offer premium, single origin, and unblended teas. ⁣ ⁣ @wishfulteas is a new subscription box that offers good quality, premium teas. I was positively surprised with my box and I loved all 4 teas that I got. #gifted⁣ ⁣ The one pictured is Yiwu Qiaomu Black tea, a very fruity and smooth black tea from China. Yiwu is one of the 6 great tea mountains in Yunnan province and is renown for its Pu Erh. Yiwu tea characterizes for being softer and lighter.⁣ ⁣ I usually like to brew black tea at 195 F to make sure I don’t get too much astringency and the result with this tea is perfect (not that this tea is astringent, but I get all those deeper notes and avoid potential astringency). It is sweet, woody, soft with some hints of fruitiness and a lingering long after taste, and it allows for over 10 steeps. A super easy tea to drink overall! ⁣
Happy #matchamonday 🍵! ⁣ Afternoon Matcha lat Happy #matchamonday 🍵! ⁣ Afternoon Matcha latte anyone? I just tried Matchabar‘s (@hustle) ceremonial grade Matcha reserve blend and I was very happy with it (#gifted). ⁣ ⁣ 💚 Super vibrant green, smooth and power umami flavor and sweetness. They source from family farms in Kagoshima.⁣ ⁣ Matchbar was the 1st Matcha bar in the USA and got a lot of people into it. They’ve built their brand in a super fun and approachable way but they’re committed to respecting the Japanese tradition of quality and care.⁣ ⁣ Do you prefer a Matcha latte in the morning or afternoon? I usually do mornings and prefer straight Matcha after lunch 😉⁣

Lemon Verbena 💛 Such a soothing herbal tea!⁣ Lemon Verbena 💛 Such a soothing herbal tea!⁣ ⁣ I like to drink it mid-afternoon because it is soothing yet energizing. It is very lemony and it’s very smooth and light. You probably know lemon verbena’s scent from soaps, perfumes, etc. ⁣ ⁣ It is a cooling herb and has some properties like fever reducing, digestive tonic, anti-inflammatory and nervous system tonic.⁣ ⁣ #gifted by @erda.tea - BEAUTIFUL packaging, organically grown in Napa Valley. They grow several herbs and flowers. Definitely recommend!
Yessss! ☀️ The weather is finally getting bett Yessss! ☀️ The weather is finally getting better and it calls for ‘brighter’ teas.⁣ ⁣ I love love love white teas, they were one of my first tea loves. My favorites are Bai Hao Yin Zhen (Silver Needle) and Moonlight White. I love Silver Needle’s lightness and freshness while I also love Moonlight White’s body, flavor and smoothness (great for colder months too).⁣ ⁣ They can contain quite a bit of caffeine, especially Bai Hao Yin Zhen, so don’t be fooled by their lightness... (if you’re interested about this topic, I have a blog post that covers caffeine in White tea)⁣ ⁣ ✨I know I’ve asked this before but I will do it again, what’s your favorite White tea?
Has anybody else had CRAZY amounts of snow lately? Has anybody else had CRAZY amounts of snow lately? I’ve had enough really... ⁣ ⁣ I’m seriously craving these hojicha and black tea shortbread cookies (for recipe, click the link in bio 😉), a huge mug of tea and cozy up in bed with a chunky blanket. Is it too much to ask? 😜⁣ ⁣ What do you crave in snow days? What types of tea? And what about food?
💫In case you missed my double Earl Grey Linzer 💫In case you missed my double Earl Grey Linzer cookies, here they are!⁣ ⁣ ❓Why double Earl Grey? Because they have tea leaves in the batter and are filled with a low-calorie homemade Earl Grey tea jelly.⁣ ⁣ ⭐️Super easy to make and so delicious! ⁣ ⁣ ➡️For the full recipe, check the link in my bio.⁣ ⁣ 📷 Did you make them?

💛Turmeric - the trending wellness spice.⁣ ⁣ 💛Turmeric - the trending wellness spice.⁣ ⁣ I’ve been drinking ‘Golden Milk’ for years now and especially turn to it in the winter and during those times I’m not feeling well.⁣ ⁣ It is an ancient Ayurvedic remedy and it’s loved and widely used due to its medicinal properties. Within its list of healing properties we can highlight that it is antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-viral, anti-bacterial, and aids digestion, between many more. ⁣ ⁣ Remember that in order to enhance its absorption, it must be consumed with pepper.⁣ ⁣ I totally get that many people don’t like its taste, it might feel bitter or brothy, but in my opinion, the health benefits outweight its taste. Are you a fan of turmeric?

One of my favorite ways to brew loose leaf tea is with this Simple Brew infuser teapot. It lets the leaves ‘dance’ and unfurl with all the space they need.
