Sipdown! (53 | 126)
I got my Yum Matcha sampler pack! I fully expect these to not be great, but I couldn’t help ordering as the sampler includes fun flavors like pineapple, cranberry, and lychee, which aren’t generally offered as matcha. These are also sweetened, and apparently it’s a mix of erythritol and stevia… Hm…
So this was the first to be tried! I didn’t want to start with one of the ones I was most excited about, so mango seemed a good choice. And good thing too, as I stupidly mixed it with too much water…
The packet recommends 16 ounces, and I made it in my 20-ounce tumbler. I ended up filling it all the way, oops! So this is quite weak. The sweetness doesn’t seem too overwhelming, and I can still taste the matcha and the mango. There is a slight powdery taste to it though, I assume from one of the sweeteners. So that’s a bummer.
We’ll have to see how the other flavors go with less water!
Flavors: Grass, Mango, Peach, Powdered Sugar, Seaweed, Sweet, Umami, Vegetal
I went to order the two samplers, because they’ve got some really unique flavours, but they don’t ship to Canada :( I guess I should be relieved that it saved me some money, but damn I want to try Strawberry Basil and Lychee matcha!
I mean, I could always ship them to you!
