Midori Spring Organic Matcha Tea Review
I was initially nervous to try Matcha tea, but because
drinking one serving of Matcha tea is equivalent to drinking 10 servings of
green tea when it comes to the health benefits, I wanted to give it a
try.
For those of you who aren’t familiar with Matcha tea, it's
an antioxidant rich green tea. In fact it has 137 times more antioxidants than
a typical serving of green tea. Unlike
green tea, when you drink Matcha tea you actually ingest the full leaf so you’re
getting all of the nutrients.
The tea came in a hard tin container and once I screwed the
top off I was met with a bright green powder. Seriously people I’m talking a
BRIGHT green. Not exactly a radioactive
green but not really something I would think would healthy to drink. After my husband’s
questioning over whether or not I was actually going to drink it, I began the
prep for making the tea.
I followed the directions and warmed up the cup by filling it
with warm water and then dumping it and drying the cup, which did seem counterproductive
but that’s what it said to do. I then scooped the tea into my cup and added the
hot water. The next part called for using a bamboo whisk to mix but I didn’t
have one so I used a fork and it worked fine. The tea became a deep green and once
the thin layer of froth formed and I was satisfied there were no more clumps. I
was ready for the taste test.
After staring at it and trying to convince my husband to try
it first with no luck, I prepared myself and took a sip. At least the fantastic
health benefits would make up for the taste…right?
Surprisingly though it wasn’t bad. The first little sip
turned into another and then another until it was gone. The tea was a little
strong at first but the taste can be adjusted by adding wate. It’s a great
drink to have during an afternoon pick me up. Just grab a book and your mug of
Matcha tea and take a few minutes for yourself.
