What you are drinking
Matcha is green tea in powder form. Where loose-leaf tea is steeped and the leaf then thrown away, matcha leaf is steamed and ground fine and whisked straight into the water, so the whole leaf ends up in the cup. That makes the drink fuller and thicker than a steeped green tea, and gives it that vivid green colour. The flavour here stays gentle: mild, with a light earthy note behind it.
How to make it
Sift 1 to 2 grams into a bowl or a wide cup; sifting is what keeps the lumps out. Add water at 70 to 80°C rather than boiling, then whisk in a zigzag, not a circle, until the powder has gone and a light froth sits on top. A bamboo whisk gives the finest froth, while a small milk frother or blender gives a smoother, flatter result. Top up with hot water, or with steamed milk for a matcha latte. At that dose, the 50 gram pack makes roughly 25 to 50 cups.
