         Matcha is a type of green tea made by steaming, drying and grinding the leaves of the Camellia sinensis plant into a fine powder.In contrast to brewable green tea, you consume the whole leaf. For this reason, you’re getting a much more concentrated source of antioxidants — epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), in particular. Many of the proposed benefits of matcha are attributed to EGCG. Studies suggest regular green tea consumption may reduce your risk of high blood pressure. These studies used green tea extracts, but the catechin content was similar to the amount found in a cup of matcha. Green tea has also been associated with reduced weight and body fat, as well as a lower risk of type 2 diabetes Matcha has a fresh flavor, which some describe as earthy.

    To prepare:

    1. Sift 1–2 teaspoons of matcha powder into a ceramic bowl using a fine mesh strainer.
    2. Add hot, but not boiling, water — the water temperature should be around 160–170°F (71–77°C).
    3. Stir slowly until the powder is dissolved, then whisk back and forth. A traditional bamboo tea whisk, called a chasen, works best.
    4. The tea is ready once a light froth forms. You can also try adding 1 cup (237 ml) of steamed milk or a non-dairy alternative for a creamy matcha tea latte.

    Because you consume the whole leaf, matcha is typically higher in caffeine than regular brewed green tea and sometimes higher than coffee. The amount in each serving can vary widely, with a range of 35–250 mg per cup (8Trusted Source).
