(Food-Beverage-News.Com, January 22, 2016 ) Atlanta, Georgia -- Introducing green tea matcha powder by Raw Matcha with all the health benefits of green tea in a convenient powder format. Consumed by the Japanese for hundreds of years, this power drink is surging in popularity with the rest of the world. The Raw Matcha company has purchased it's first batch of matcha powder from the Uji region of Japan.
Matcha powder is predicted to be the biggest super food of 2016. With 137 times the antioxidants of other well known super foods such as blueberries, green tea and pomegranates, matcha powder is becoming the new 'go-to' with health-conscious consumers. First used by Zen Buddhists to improve concentration during long periods of meditation, this form of tea also helps with focus and metabolism. Matcha green tea contains the polyphenol EGCG, a thermogenic component believed to boost metabolism.
The process used to make matcha powder is what makes this form of green tea so potent. The tea plant is covered with shade cloth during the growing process to encourage the production of chlorophyll. This is why it is so green. Then the whole tea leaf is ground to a fine powder which can be consumed as a beverage or in other food products.
This powder form of green tea allows it to be used in smoothies, lattes, baking and other cooking. Its grassy, earthy flavor works well with savory dishes such as scrambled eggs or casseroles. The health benefits of matcha tea can also be enjoyed in baking as the powder can be added to muffins, cakes and ice cream. Matcha green tea power is a healthy and delicious alternative to standard lattes.
Raw Matcha's product is all 100% organic with no additives or sweeteners. Certified organic by JONA (Japanese Organic and Natural Foods Association) and the USDA. This Matcha Green Tea Powder has now arrived at Amazon.
