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.⁣

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?

How many different varieties of black tea do you know or have you tried? Flavor profiles vary by region, climate, altitude, cultivation, processing methods, harvesting times etc. (but brewing methods can also affect a tea’s flavor and experience).⁣
⁣
On this blog post, I explore several tea producing countries and regions and talk about the different flavor profiles that we can find in each.⁣

⁣
I’ve been eyeing this plant-based protein powder for a while because I love @foursigmatic products and this one has so many benefits! It has 5 mushroom extracts + 2 adaptogens (including Ashwagandha, which I loooove!), it has no fillers, it’s organic and unflavored. If you use protein powders, I can’t recommend this one enough.⁣
⁣
Now, back to my delicious breakfast... I added a scoop of protein powder to my Matcha overnight oats making it a healthy powerhouse 💪🏼🍵💚and oh my it tasted good!⁣

Do you enjoy brewing tea in a gaiwan, mug, teacup, pot? ⁣
⁣
I was mostly doing ‘western brewing’ and couldn’t find enough time to have many gong fu sessions. It always felt like too much of a time commitment... but since lockdown last March I started doing it every day.⁣
⁣
I end up drinking so much more tea! I fill a thermos with hot water and run through it in no time by steeping and re steeping tea using a gaiwan.⁣ So the answer to my question for me today, is by far my gaiwan!⁣

Has your brewing style changed through this past year?
For this #matchamonday I want to share the 3 key t For this #matchamonday I want to share the 3 key things that you need to make a perfect Matcha latte.⁣
⁣
- A good quality Matcha. This is a make it or break it factor. ⁣
- Water at the right temperature: 175 F to prepare the Matcha base.⁣
- Last but never least, a great milk that froths well, tastes amazing and doesn’t have unnecessary additives. ⁣
⁣
Since I’m all about non-dairy milk, I experiment a lot and try different plant based alternatives. I wasn’t drinking too much almond milk because I found that it didn’t froth so well, until I found @mooala_koala . ⁣
⁣
Please look at that froth 🤩! (plus it is organic). Excited to find a great unsweetened almond milk that makes amazing lattes!⁣

Why double? These cookies are made with Earl Grey tea leaves and filled with a homemade low-calorie Earl Grey jelly.⁣
⁣
Sounds complicated? Not at all! The Earl Grey jelly is extremely easy and quick to make and the cookies are pretty straightforward. ⁣
⁣
The thing is, this combo is killer. I was blown away by the pronounced Earl Grey flavor and deliciousness of these Linzer cookies. A must try!⁣

@vahdamindia is one of my partner brands and I love it for several reasons. Their teas are excellent quality, fresh and sourced directly from local partner farms. Second, they are plastic and carbon neutral, fair trade, and they give 1% of their revenue towards education of the tea grower’s children. Good tea and mission, a winning tea brand for me.

Happy #matchamonday friends! ⁣ ⁣ I’m trying Happy #matchamonday friends! ⁣

I’m trying out a new Matcha today, Ujitawara Special by @naokimatcha . It is a blend from Tencha made of Uji Hikari and Samidori cultivars. It is a wonderfully sweet and mellow Matcha, with a smooth mouthfeel and balanced umami. Excellent to drink on its own.⁣
⁣
For those who specifically ask for good Matcha on @amazon , go for Naoki. It’s hard to find good Matcha there in between so much ‘Matcha noise’ and cheap quality ones.⁣
⁣
Where are you storing your open Matcha? I keep mine in the fridge, I find it stays fresh longer. Just make sure it is properly sealed

BREWING TIP:

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.
