Sipping on Green: A Refreshing Matcha Recipe with Cupffee

In the world of coffee and tea, innovation isn't just about taste; it's about the entire experience—from preparation to presentation, and even post-consumption. That's where Cupffee, the edible coffee cup, comes into play, blending sustainability with pleasure in each bite. 

Today, we're diving into a delightful recipe that marries the traditional Japanese tea ceremony's reverence with modern, eco-conscious consumption: Matcha with Cupffee.

Why Matcha?

Matcha, a finely ground powder made from specially grown and processed green tea leaves, has been a staple in Japanese culture and ceremonies for centuries. Revered for its health benefits, matcha is rich in antioxidants, boosts metabolism, enhances concentration, and relaxes the mind. Its vibrant green hue and unique, earthy flavor make it a favorite among tea enthusiasts. Now, imagine combining the distinct taste and health benefits of matcha with the innovative delight of Cupffee. Ready? Let's brew.

Ingredients:

• ¼ cup matcha powder
• ¼ cup hot water
• 5 strawberries, smashed
• Plant-based milk

Preparation:

1. Matcha Base: Begin by sifting your matcha powder into a bowl to avoid clumps. Add ¼ cup of hot water. After that mix them until the mixture becomes frothy. Traditional matcha is prepared with a bamboo whisk, but a small regular whisk can work in a pinch.

2. Strawberry Twist: Take your smashed strawberries and stir them into the matcha mixture. This step is what sets this recipe apart, adding a sweet, fruity flavor that compliments the matcha's natural bitterness.

3. Milk & Mix: Pour the matcha-strawberry mix into your Cupffee cup. Then, top it off with your preferred plant-based milk. Whether you enjoy your matcha latte hot or cold is up to you. For a cold beverage, ensure your milk is chilled; you can even add ice cubes for an extra-refreshing drink.

4. Sip & Bite: Now, the moment of truth. Sip on your delicious, antioxidant-packed matcha creation, and as you do, don't forget to take bites of your Cupffee cup.
