Matcha fans, brace yourselves — a global shortage is brewing
This green drink may soon be hard to find.
Chamberlain Coffee offers ceremonial-grade matcha that is harvested in Shizouka, Japan. The organic powder can be mixed with hot water to make tea or milk for a latte and it comes in a tin that can make up to 30 cups.
This matcha powder also contains adaptogens, mushrooms and probiotics and is blended with monk fruit for added sweetness, according to the brand. Along with the regular matcha flavor, you can get honey vanilla matcha, honey pistachio matcha or honey lavender matcha.
NBC Select updates editor Mili Godio has tried this matcha latte mix and says it has a nice amount of sweetness added to cancel out any bitterness from the matcha. This bag comes with 10 individual packets of matcha, making it easy to keep in a desk drawer or take with you when traveling.
This matcha powder is ground to be extra fine so that it dissolves quickly in whatever you’re mixing it with, according to the brand. It’s harvested from shade-grown trees for 8 weeks and one bag contains 25 servings. This blend has a 4.5-star average rating from 5,921 reviews on Amazon.
This matcha is shade-grown and harvested in Uji, Japan, according to the brand. It can be used to make hot or cold beverages and has zero added sugar — so if you prefer your matcha lattes sweet, you’ll need to add your sweetener.
