ten must-make matcha recipes

“Matcha, Matcha, man……I want to be your, matcha man.”

As if you didn’t see that coming.

It’s Friday, let’s sing songs, shake our booties, drink giggle juice, and matcha right into the weekend. GAH. I am killing it today. Wait. Are you still reading? I swear there is a point.

For those of you scratching your heads in confusion, matcha is basically fine green tea powder, but with a few more superpowers. Since it’s grown in the shade, it produces more theanine and chlorophyll, which helps with mental focus and offers an energy boost without the jitters of caffeine. Pretty sweet, huh?

So, to make your weekend superhero level epic, how about a few matcha recipes from some fabulous food bloggers? Desserts, cocktails, entrees, it’s matcha madness!
