Matcha Latte


Matcha is a powdered green tea that many monks in Japan drink.


It is both stimulating and calming (yes, extremes in one) and should you so desire, (a desireless state) aids meditation.


I'v created a cool, delicious-summer, enzyme rich, could be breakfast, libation. Read: Sprouted hemp and almond milk (made with loved up n imploded 'eau and fresh coconut)...
a Matcha latte!


Nutrient rich, without further ado, here's the recipe:

Ok.. How to?

  7. Rinse out blender from left over hull and add coconut flesh and the other ingredients
