I love coffee and tea. The caffeine is just a bonus.
My favorite tea is
matcha - ordered directly from Japan and prepared in the traditional way. But I love all kinds of tea.
I drink about two cups of coffee almost every day.
None of this is probably helping my migraines.
Anyway, here is a recipe for an amazing matcha smoothie. (Pro tip: Use high quality matcha such as the one linked above and maybe consider using less simple syrup.)
Quote:
1. To a standard blender, add a teaspoon of matcha, 4oz half & half, 5oz of simple syrup, and 16oz of ice.
2. Pre-blend on low speed for about 30 seconds.
3. Blend on high for about 2 minutes until smooth consistency.
4. Pour into a tea mug and top off with whip cream and a dusting of Matcha powder.
Simple Syrup
In a sauce pot, add:
1. 1 cup sugar
2. 1 cup water
3. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat.
4. Stir well and let sit until all sugar dissolves. About 5 minutes.
5. Strain, let cool in fridge and Ready to Use!
*We recommend for immediate use of simple syrup, use 'quick ice method' to bring temperature down. Fill pitcher with ice cubes, strain warm water and dissolved sugar directly on pitcher. Strain excess ice cubes with a mesh strainer, directly into a reusable container. Ready to use immediately. Simple syrup stays fresh in fridge for one week.
