After my peach matcha debacle, I needed something good. So I went for this one. I have never tried it but the reviews are all positive. I have robust flavouring.
The dry matcha smells strongly of nibs licorice. Mmmm. I love nibs.
I made this cold shaken, 1/2 tsp in about 8 oz water with a bit of white sugar.
The taste is surprisingly mild. There is a light taste similar to nibs. But I would describe this one as more black cherry syrup tasting. My grandma makes chokecherry syrup every year and this is almost bang on for what it tastes like. Very delicious. You can taste the matcha but it blends well with the black cherry flavour. I think I will bump up how much matcha I use and see if that makes a stronger taste, but otherwise it is pretty good the way it is.

How do you use the chokecherry syrup your grandma makes – is it added to water for a beverage? When I was a child, my mom used to make chokecherry jelly and it was delicious.
It is very much like pancake syrup. So I put it on pancakes, waffles, toast, ice cream etc. I have never thought of mixing it in drinks, but I bet it would be good in iced tea or a coke.
Oh, that syrup does sound good, especially on pancakes – yum. You should try it in some iced tea!
