Homemade, February 2011 in Vienna, Austria
I was in Japan last year and brought this small can of matcha from Uji, the ancient city that has been famous for green tea cultivation since centuries, after attending a tea ceremony.
Here’s an animation video on how to prepare matcha: http://www.ippodo-tea.co.jp/tea/matcha_01.html
*This matcha latte is with soy milk and muscovado sugar.

that tea looks really good for some reason. cant go wrong with green tea from japan.
Wow, the picture is very nice, and I wish I could drink it right now since it’s -26C today in Toronto!
Your picture is perfection. Congrats on being freshly pressed.
You are sure it has no wasabi cream ;) No kidding, it looks very delicious.
Oh my! I have just recently gotten addicted to Chai lattes, might have to just add this to my repertoir!
I went to the “how to” video but it was in Japanese. It looks great anyways and I want some!!!
-Thank you! The picture looks fabulous!
I love it…
Thank for it…!

Picture makes it look very yummy. I love green tea. I don’t have any from Japan. I’ll have to see if I can get some. Thanks for posting!
This is beautiful, as is the rest of your blog! Going to check out your Chinese version too. :)
there is actually a japanese tea shop in the naschmarkt area (Vienna) called Cha No Ma. They make great macha latte
I’m not sure what everyone is talking about, but I thought I’d just throw in my two cents anyway. I’m trying to fix my password. Ever since I tried to log in too many times it has challenged me to answer all kinds of questions to which I know the answer, but, unfortunately, the login server does not know, so it keeps getting stuck on the correct answer. Now, before I can fix that, I have to fix the login server’s bad answers, then go back to the correct answer. It’s very hard when that machine is dumb and doesn’t know the correct answers, but I do know the answers, being the human being it is trying to identify. I’ll get it fixed sooner or later; I just wish the server would obey me and not the stupid program that was put into it!!!
The Tea looks killer, by the way.

So inviting! What parts of Japan did you enjoy most?
Ok so maybe it is true that bigger pics and less content equals Freshly Pressed. Congrats on making the cut.
This past year I’ve really gotten into green tea and drink it at LEAST once a day. I’m not familiar with this ‘matcha’ but I’m going to look into it! Thanks for the post and congrats on being Freshly Pressed!
It looks amazing, I would love to try it!
Great pic, i really liked it.
Thanks for the wonderful post.

The pic looks great!! We really would like to try this.
We first eat with our eyes. Yes?
I am not a big latte drinker but this drink looks simply amazing. Wonderful job and the photo is very inviting.
不錯喝的樣子＾＾
I believe my salivary glands are flooded.
Pretty.
Lovely photo, well captured, even down to the Asian-Zen feel…
Matcha is one of my very favorite things in the world. I worked at a coffee shop in Sun Valley, Idaho, USA for a few years and was introduced to it there. You made it beautifully!
I have been trying to find Matcha tea and I can’t. Does anyone know if it is sold at Earth Fare?
White, Chocolatish and Green – Never seen such colourful tea.
i love to try it. :D
I am super excited to have stumbled upon this entry!
I have recently become obsessed with match, not only does it taste great in a latte but it is so good for you.
I have been looking for new, more efficient ways to make my matcha soy lattes but I can’t seem to ever whisk it enough.
Thanks for the vid!
Wow, That looks great. I would love to try some. :)
wow thats really great!
beautiful photos!
Thank you all very much for the comments, I’ll try to keep up the work!

There are lots of words there.
È molto bello leggere le tue righe, davvero belissimo. Io sono felice.
Great pic, I can almost taste it! ^^
The photo looks really good. I think their milk helps with the taste.
lovely
looks really good. making me thirsty!
At first the tea looked unappetising. But it kinda looks like something to try :) something new…
It’s such a coincidence that I was drinking a latte when I saw this! I’m a big fan of anything to do with coffee or tea, so I will make sure to try this sometime, if I get matcha here in the US.
Congratulations on being Freshly Pressed!

Great pic! Are you sure that isn’t just washing fluid then, lol. Looks good either way.
Your cuppa looked so divine that I got up and microwaved a cup of water to make myself a green teabag tea which I am sipping on while writing this. Twinings teabags are very good for someone like me who does not like to stay in the kitchen longer than she has to.
LOVED the animation. So cute! Does look yummy :)
nice x
