Drink Green
Here’s a green claim that we can make without attaching a long footnote including links to sources: The matcha powder creates a bright green color and a sweet green tea taste, with a hint of vanilla flavour, when mixed with our oat base. The color is proof that the powder from the finely ground Tencha used for it is quality stuff. Store it cold and we also recommend serving it cold that way, maybe even pouring it over a glass of ice before drinking. It’s of course possible to drink it warm as well, if that’s your preference. Just don’t use it as a rinse, that’s greenwashing.
Modern Matcha
You could probably steam the green tea leaves over an open fire to preserve freshness and prevent fermentation before stripping the stems and veins from the leaves by yourself and drying the flesh, known as Tencha, in a Sauna at 180°C. Then, grind them with a hand polished stone into a fine powder that easily mixes with liquids like our oat drinks. It would most likely bring you great joy and satisfaction, but if you’re short on time, you’ll get the same result just by doing the ritual of shaking the package before serving. No milk and no soy.
