Mocha Matcha

Ohhhh I so love this matcha!
It was way better than a Starbucks mocha latte!
I did however make this in my typical latte manner with ice, milk, and creamer with the matcha base.
I also as always tasted this matcha straight and it sure could have satisfied me without all the additions but habits die hard and I wanted a cool drink.
The mocha taste was so good, a little like coffee, a little like dark chocolate and a whole lot of YUM!
I feel so spoiled with my morning matcha routine and can’t imagine how I ever got motivated in the mornings without it.
The kind of energy boost it gives you is so wonderful – not jittery or excitable but just the right level of boost and it feels like a good clean energy. This is coming from a former Red Bull junkie as well!
Actually I also used to be addicted to coffee as well so this gives me both the energy boost I crave along with the flavor of a good coffee! It does have a good coffee flavor too! Its not too strong of a coffee flavor either although I used to adore strong coffee.
This one is excellent for my morning “fix”.
I realize I have done a TON of reviews on Red Leaf Tea and many people are making their own orders. Deciding which flavor to try first is always a challenge I know and with even more amazing flavors coming out its going to get even more difficult deciding where to begin your matcha journey.
All I can say is I have yet to dislike ANY flavor and out of … geesh… about 23 or 24 or so flavors I have tired I would say only one – ONE of those flavors was a 4 instead of 5 stars! Only ONE. All of the flavors from Red Leaf Tea have been so natural, so true to taste. I most always have got the robust but as most of you know I want an “in my face” flavor. However even at a delicate flavoring I have never been let down.
All I can say is go for it – pick one – any one – Butterscotch so far has been my top favorite I think. But you can’t go wrong with vanilla – and if you love it (you will) you have something to mix with other flavors such as Strawberry Vanilla. Don’t think of vanilla as a flavor that will get muted by another either. I have found it a very nice mixing flavor and it stands out. I got the French Vanilla but have also tried Madagascar, I prefer the French of the two as it is a stronger vanilla but trust me BOTH were excellent.
I mean when you buy one, review it, get the next free, you really can not find a better deal for any kind of tea on the net in my opinion. Plus the customer service and shipping are the best!
Thanks Red Leaf Tea!

I didn’t even see this one until the reviews started going up. It would have been my first choice otherwise heh
This sounds amazing! I’ve only ever had plain Matcha, which I absolutely love. The idea of flavors kind of freaks me out, I’m not a huge flavored tea person anyway,but you keep making them sound SO awesome, so mouthwatering, Azzrian!
I can understand that point of view for sure, and while matcha is absolutely tea, it helps not to think of it that way – to me it is more like an energy powder that does not get you edgy and just happens to taste like sin and love and the universe coming together in peace and harmony. At least for a few hours lol
I think I am going to go for this in my next order: I’ve seen some tasty reviews for it recently!

There are so many to select from! :)
Which of course is not a bad thing.
