In today's episode we're diving into one of my all-time favorite wellness staples: matcha. This vibrant powdered green tea may be a popular choice at trendy coffee shops, but its roots run much deeper. Used for centuries in Japanese tea ceremonies and traditional medicine, matcha is so much more than a pretty latte.

We'll explore its rich history, its powerful antioxidant properties, and why it's become a go-to for those looking to boost energy, focus, and overall well-being without the jitters of coffee. I'll also share how I incorporate matcha into my daily routine, some fun recipe ideas, and what to look for when choosing a quality matcha.

Topics Include:

• the origins of matcha
• how matcha is grown and made
• matcha health benefits
• different grades
• what to look for when choosing matcha
• how to make matcha at home
• my favorite ways to have matcha
