I start every day with a smoothie that includes a teaspoon of matcha. I’ve tried experimenting with using flavored matcha before, but because they are always chalk full of sweetener, they made my smoothies waaaaaaaay too unbearably sweet. 3 Leaf Tea has the only unsweetened flavored matcha I could find, so I grabbed a couple of their flavors not long ago and added this as a sample to reach free shipping.

One of my favorite smoothies is a combo of blended coconut milk, mango, vanilla Greek yogurt, and lime juice. I decided to add this matcha instead of plain matcha to go for a mojito vibe, and it worked well! The flavor of the matcha holds out nice and strong against all the smoothie ingredients and adds a very refreshing minty note to the drink. I was expecting a strong peppermint flavor, but I’m actually getting more of a spearmint note. It’s really complimentary with the tangy lime. I can’t comment on the actual matcha itself, as I don’t really taste the grassy matcha taste in smoothies and I pretty much never drink it as a plain drink.

There is only a little left in the sampler pouch now, but I’d definitely be willing to get this one again. I may use what is left paired with a strawberry smoothie to see how much versatility I can get with a strong flavor like mint.

Sipdown! (35 | 35)

Finished off as an iced oat latte with maple syrup.

This is a lovely matcha, I find the amount of mint to be just right. Sometimes mint-flavored things can be over the top for me, and then they just remind me of toothpaste or Altoids. But this has a nice amount of mint that’s somewhere in the peppermint or mint chocolate chip ice cream realm. And with oat milk added, it does remind me of ice cream.

That being said, I’m not sure whether I’ll reorder it just because I find mint to be more of a situational flavor for me. With the fruity flavors, I can drink them every day, but I’m not always in the mood for a mint latte if that makes sense. However, this does pair very well with a bit of chocolate syrup (as you would expect) and also with lemonade for a refreshing summer drink. Definitely recommend it!

Oh, I just bought this one for Superanna but she hasn’t tried it yet! I am glad to hear you enjoyed it. I bought three flavor matchas and a hojicha for her after seeing the reviews on here and she really liked the hojicha.

She is going to Japan in 2024. Any must see places to see or thins to do? Anyone who has been, I would love to hear from you!

ashmanra

Also, the chocolate syrup is such an amazing idea. I will pass that on. I chose this one, cardamom, and cinnamon for her because she doesn’t love fruity flavors.

The birthday cake is a good one too! I’ll have to think about the Japan recommendations…

ashmanra

I have been eyeing the birthday cake one since I got the coupon in my email for the third anniversary sale. Good to have a recommendation for it!

Ashmanra – I really enjoyed the Tokyo art museum. A shinto shrine is a must, the bigger the better. All the food is great, but the small crepe shops can’t be beat or a sit down Yakitori noodle place where they cook it right in front of you. Oh, and Japanese karaoke is an ‘experience’ gotta do that too.

ashmanra

Sounds awesome! I will pass it on!

I got this in a Sipsby box and thought I could sort of recreate a tangerine mojito I had at a restaurant in Toronto. I did this by putting this matcha in tangerine lemonade except I got no mint that way. So, I tried the matcha just in water and basically it tasted like grass. This just wasn’t great.

This one was also from this afternoon. I haven’t had matcha in an eternity, so made this one in to a latte. Overall as a result this one was totally fine. I probably should have had it straight but flavoured matcha for me was always more about lattes and smoothies :) Thanks VariaTEA!

I’ve had this matcha before but it’s been three years, so the refresher was very welcome!

I’m not sure if the formula has changed or just my tastes but this was much, much better than I remembered it tasting – so fresh and crisp with a punch of cooling menthol peppermint on the finish. I felt the chill as I exhaled, and I loved it!

I ended up mixing myself up a cup of this, cardamom matcha, and cinnamon matcha in equal thirds – it tastes like Spruce! Very interesting combination of flavours that I enjoyed deeply. Now I find myself strongly craving a spruce or fir flavoured matcha that’s more “properly” put together – am I alone in thinking that would taste good?

Leafhopper

I might drink that, though I’d be more interested in a tea with fir/spruce pieces in it, which I think some vendors have sold at some point.

Roswell Strange

Yeah, I have a few teas with cedar and a few with pine/fir – they’re really delicious, imo. Really make you feel immersed in nature, in the best way.
