Matcha Latte!

I have always been a creature of caffeine. I was drinking upwards of three cups of coffee a day. When I began to learn the negative impact of high levels of acidity on your stomach, I decided to try and remove acidity from my diet. Coffee being one of the first things to go. I wanted to try out matcha powder, a powdered form of green tea, and the benefits have been amazing. Matcha is packed with antioxidants including the powerful EGCg, it boosts metabolism and burns calories.Detoxifies effectively and naturally. Calms the mind and relaxes the body. Is rich in fiber, chlorophyll and vitamins. Enhances my mood and aids in concentration. The switch has made all the difference, the recipe for the matcha Latte I make is below! Enjoy!!
