As you have seen, matcha tea is an incredible drink with really wonderful properties. However, many people wonder what is the best way to drink it and the answer is traditional. The traditional way of preparing matcha tea consists of placing the matcha in a large bowl known as chawan to which hot water is added and diluted with a bamboo whisk known as chasen until the mixture achieves a homogeneous consistency and forms a foam layer.

By using traditional tools such as chawan and chasen, the matcha tea is perfectly diluted and with a beautiful and beautiful layer of foam on its surface. If you don’t have these tools and you want to make a traditional matcha tea, you can change the chawan for a bowl and the chasen with a whisk.

Although the traditional preparation is the best when making matcha tea, over the years a modern style of preparing this wonderful tea has emerged. The modern style of making matcha tea is to simply mix it vigorously with water or incorporate it into a blender when making a healthy smoothie or vigorously mix it with water or juices in a container creating unique flavors with various ingredients. However, as it is not done traditionally, matcha tea is not usually diluted correctly.

Among some delicious recipes of the modern style of matcha tea we can find:

Matcha Smoothie: This drink is undoubtedly one of my favorites. You only need a glass of unsweetened coconut milk, a teaspoon of matcha tea, half a cup of mango, lots of ice, and stevia to taste. You’ll love it!
