I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.
In an effort to eat healthier – or at least not as unhealthy – I’m always interested in trying out new products. I’ve heard a lot about Matcha Green Tea Powder so when the opportunity presented itself to get a promotional package to test, I figured there was nothing to lose.
I’m always skeptical about things I’m not sure of and this certainly fell into that category. I’ve tried various protein powders with varying results but this is the first time I’ve had a green tea powder.
When I ordered the product, I received a document with a bunch of recipes. I expected it to be all beverages but to my surprise, many were not. The recipe book included coffee cake, pudding, breakfast bowls, brownies, eggs and hummus just to name a few.
I haven’t had a chance to purchase ingredients (or meal plan) to try any of the additional recipes yet. I’ll be sure to update my review once I have done so. The one recipe I did try was a juice mixture and I was surprised by how much I liked the taste. As I approached the bottom of the glass, I even added more water to make it go a little further. The only thing I wish I had done differently was make sure it was dissolved completely before starting to drink it. Fortunately, that provided me with the opportunity to taste it in a more concentrated amount and discover that it doesn’t taste like I expected it to. I thought it would taste like the bottom of a cup of tea when the teabag breaks… but it didn’t. It had an earthy-tea-ish taste but nothing bitter or odd. Considering I like my tea with sweetener, that was a pleasant surprise.
I’m looking forward to trying this out in other recipes and if I love it in those, my rating will certainly jump to a 5-star. The only reason I didn’t rate it 5 now is because I didn’t have a chance to test the limits of the product.
On a side note, I have difficulty consuming my allotment of water. This helped me consume additional water when I was actually just wanting to go snack.
