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.
Sift 2g of matcha into a bowl.
Add 60ml of water at 75 degrees Celsius and whisk for 20 seconds.
Stir 2 teaspoons of honey into the matcha until fully dissolved.
Pour into a teacup and top with 100ml of hot water at 75 degrees Celsius.
Float a thin lemon wheel on the surface.
Add the lemon last. Citrus added before the matcha can dull the foam.Almanac note
Made it?
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.
