The Zen Process of Matcha Brewing

Matcha is a Japanese green tea that consists of finely ground leaves. Because of its powdery consistency, Matcha has its own process of brewing, where you can’t simply let it infuse in water. This video above perfectly encapsulates the process in which matcha is brewed and the correct way in doing so. From sifting the powder to using a special bamboo whisk, it’s not only an interesting method but one that seems very tranquil and zen. Often touted for its plenitude of health benefits, try to brew a cup for yourself at home.
