Turn over a new leaf with KissMe Organics Organic Matcha

Disclosure: I got this product as part of an advertorial. Ready to start 2014 with a healthy new kick? Try Organic Matcha from KissMe Organics. What is Matcha? I would describe it as green tea with a turbo boost . It is born in Japan and undergoes a painstaking cultivation process including being grown in the shade the last four weeks. This helps the Matcha to retain high chlorophyll levels which result in elevated levels of antioxidant properties- 137x the antioxidants in brewed green tea because the quality of the tea is the finest and you use the whole leaf when preparing instead of just steeping. It gives you a metabolism boost, 4-6 hours of increased focus and increased energy and it is even good for your skin!   The traditional method for preparing is to use 1/2 to 1 tsp Matcha powder and a bamboo whisk. Not having a bamboo whisk handy I just used a regular one ;D. The flavor is really intense and I played around with drinking it straight as I drink all my tea that way
