There’s much to love about matcha, which is likely why you’ve seen it featured on the menus of coffeehouses everywhere!

Matcha is simply green tea leaves that are ground into a super fine powder. If you like green tea, consider matcha its whole leaf form rather than its steeped counterpart. This powder can be used in all kinds of recipes including smoothies, baked goods and, of course, the ever popular iced latte!

Matcha

The vibrant green color is certainly Instagram-worthy, but matcha is also high in antioxidants and has been shown to boost metabolism, all of which make the everyday latte experience that much better.

Those that have tried matcha know that it has a very unique, earthy taste. It honestly took me a while to warm up to it, but I’ve found that adding a flavorful companion, like strawberry milk, helps significantly. Not only does it add a beautiful contrasting color, but it contributes subtle fruity sweetness to each sip.

Heinen's Grocery Store

By Heinen's Grocery Store

In 1929, Joe Heinen opened the doors of a small butcher shop on the east side of Cleveland, Ohio, aiming to establish himself as the city’s purveyor of quality meats. As customers came into Heinen’s new shop for their meat purchases, they began asking him to carry groceries as well. Joe added homemade peanut butter, pickles and donuts and by 1933, business had grown enough to include a line of produce and canned goods. Heinen’s Grocery Store was born.
