Happy holidays! It’s that magical time of year where excitement, happiness, and kindness flows freely with anticipation of the holidays. But as we all know, it can get a little hectic sometimes too. Matcha is my go-to magic ingredient to relax and also realign my thoughts in a calm, positive way. (Many of you know my favorite way to enjoy it is pure whisked tea, but a comforting latte can be a special treat too!) This one has warm, festive flavors of cocoa and peppermint to zenergize your mind through the busy holiday season. Sending peace and joy to all!
