matcha powder

Ground green tea

Matcha powder is finely ground green tea leaves, traditionally used in Japanese tea ceremonies.

Unlike regular green tea where leaves steep and are discarded, matcha is whisked into water and consumed whole, giving it a more intense flavor and higher caffeine content.

The bright green powder appears in lattes, smoothies, and desserts: I'll have a matcha latte.
