Matcha comfort

I just recently bought a sample package of the Vital Proteins Collagen Matcha powder, because I had received this beautiful matcha gift set and had to give it a try. I researched matcha tea to see the benefits and the best way to make it.

Beautiful set! The bowl is big and comforting (I share a photo of me holding it to give an idea of the size) I enjoyed using this set to create my comfort drink. I use Vital Proteins Matcha Collagen powder. First, I use the whisk to measure 1 1/2 teaspoons of matcha powder and whisk that into the beautiful, heavy bowl. I heat a tablespoon or so of water (not boiling); and add that to the matcha bowl with the powder. Use the Bamboo whisk to blend this into a smooth liquid with no clumps. Rinse the bamboo whisk and set it on the drying whisk holder to keep the shape and help it dry properly. I then have my electric frother nearby heating up either my almond milk or my oat milk (about 2/3 cups) While the milk is heating, I add a tsp or so of honey to my matcha mixture in the matcha bowl. I pour the frothed milk into the matcha bowl and using the sifter, I blend all of this until frothy. Sprinkle with nutmeg and enjoy.

A couple of tips: the spoon stand is hiding under the foam; I share a photo with an arrow pointing at the hidden spot.

This is an adorable set that is well-made. I am pleased with this set. I share a photo of the size of the bowl next to my face. This is very comforting and I feel pampered with this.

Fruit Matcha smoothie

So good!

I saw an iced matcha pineapple drink recipe on Pinterest over the weekend – I embellished with what I had by adding a little something here and there.

The recipe called for coconut milk, which I did not have. I also added cherries from our tree.


3/4 cup almond milk

1/2 cup pineapple juice -I make my own juice

1 Tbsp Flax seed Oil

1 tsp ground ginger

1 tsp matcha powder

1 frozen banana

1/2 cup of ice

handful of berries


Blend – Enjoy!
