Preparation & Care

Traditional Usucha (Thin Tea) Recipe

Ingredients:

  • 1-1.5 tsp high-quality matcha
  • 2-3 oz (60-90 ml) hot water (175°F / 80°C)

Equipment:

  • Matcha bowl
  • Bamboo Matcha whisk (Chasen)

Instructions:

  • Preheat your matcha bowl: Pour hot water into the bowl, swirl it around to warm the sides, then discard the water.
  • Add 1-1.5 teaspoons of matcha powder to the warmed bowl.
  • Carefully pour 2-3 ounces of warm water (175°F or 80°C) over the matcha powder.
  • Using your bamboo whisk, whisk the matcha and water together in a zig-zag motion until a frothy layer forms on the surface.

Tip: The key to a perfect Usucha is in the whisking! Whisk briskly and continuously until you achieve a smooth, frothy consistency with minimal lumps.

Remember: Making usucha is an art that takes practice. Adjust your Japanese matcha powder and water quantities to find your perfect balance and preferred taste. Enjoy your cup of matcha by taking small sips!

Care Instructions

Store your matcha in a cool, dry place to maintain optimal freshness. Once opened, refrigeration is recommended to preserve its vibrant color and delicate flavor. Ensure the pouch is tightly sealed to lock in the aroma and prevent moisture.

Great Taste and Easy Blending

I find the Aprika’s Matcha whisk well with my frothed almond milk and has the smoothest flavor. I have tried many brands but prefer all Aprika Life’s matcha.

I love the tea, but hate the packaging!
In this era of transitioning to less plastic pollution , can’t we do better? I may have to give it up!

Frequently Asked Questions

Is a matcha whisk necessary to make matcha?

A matcha whisk, or bamboo chasen, effectively breaks up clumps to create a smoother, frothier cup. A regular whisk may not mix the matcha properly. If you don’t have a matcha whisk, you can always use a milk frother or blend it in a blender instead.

What are the benefits of matcha powder?

Antioxidant-rich Matcha powder offers numerous health benefits. It can boost brain function, improving attention and memory while also enhancing heart health by potentially lowering blood pressure and cholesterol. Matcha provides sustained energy lift without the jitters of coffee and strengthens the immune system with nutrients like vitamin C and EGCG.

How to make traditional matcha?

To make traditional matcha, you'll need to whisk matcha powder with hot water (around 175°F or 80°C) in a bowl using a bamboo whisk until frothy. This creates a smooth, vibrant green tea with a slightly bitter and umami flavor.

Is ceremonial grade matcha worth it?

Yes! Ceremonial-grade matcha is appreciated for its smooth, sweet flavor and vibrant green color. It's made from the youngest tea leaves, producing a higher quality and more refined taste than other grades.
