Estimated at about 34 mg of caffeine and 25 mg of L-theanine per gram of matcha. Cultivar, grade and harvest all move the real figure, so treat these as a guide, not a measurement. Not medical advice.
Method
Sift 2g of matcha into a bowl.
Add 60ml of water at 75 degrees Celsius and whisk for 20 seconds.
Warm 180ml of unsweetened almond milk to about 60 degrees Celsius.
Stir 1 small drop of stevia into the milk.
Pour the matcha into a mug and top with the almond milk.
Stevia is much sweeter than sugar. Start with one drop and add more to taste.Almanac note
Made it?
Keep the ratio that worked
The journal keeps this bowl (grams, water, temperature, and how it actually tasted) on this device, so the next one starts from what worked. It builds a 13-week heatmap as you go, and it is free for up to 1,000 bowls on this device. Premium adds the tin cellar, so each bowl is costed against the tin you actually poured it from.
