Organic Matcha Review

*As always the opinions expressed here are my own and always will be.*

I received this organic matcha green tea in exchange for my honest unbiased review of the product from Kiss Me Organics via Tomoson. I also recieved a 70 page Organic Matcha Recipe Guide complimenary from Kiss Me Organics. 

So, I've had the priviledge of using this organic green tea and I have to say that it is amazing! I usually don't really like the taste of green tea but for some reason I like this one. It has an earthy smell to it and tastes very good! I especially like that the green tea is not only limited to making tea! You have a variety of options of what to make with the green tea; 70 pages worth to be exact! So far, I've made two recipes and have liked them both. 

The first recipe I tried was the Berry Good Morning Smoothie. Now, I did not have blueberries on hand so I omitted this ingredient, but despite that the smoothie tasted so delicious! It honestly tasted like a smoothie you'd get at a restaurant. The green tea was not overpowering and the color of the green tea did not show in the smoothie. It was very simple to make and I will defintely be making it again. 







The second recipe I tried was the Matcha Orange Cocktail. As you can see it looks nothing like the picture provided in the recipe guide. Maybe I went a bit overboard with the green tea? I don't think so, but it sure looks that way LOL. This recipe was good too, but I prefered the first one to this one. This recipe simply tasted like green tea infused orange juice. It did not taste bad at all, however, it just simply wasn't as good to me as the first one. This recipe was also very simple to make. In fact, after reading through the recipe guide, all the recipes seem very easy to make and seem like a healthy alternative to your favorite meals. Available in the guide which is provided for you once you purchase the green tea are recipes to make drinks & cocktails, smoothies, breakfast recipes, sweets, breads, dips & toppers, pizza, poultry & seafood, beef, soup & sides, and shot drinks. 

 





Apart from the fact that this green tea tastes good and is easy to implement in various recipes, I found that it gives me tremendous energy! It's not the type of energy that you would typically find in an energy drink but it is nonetheless a good type of energy. I am able to do what I have to do around the house and run all my errands without feeling tired and the best part of it all is that I am receiving the appropriate amount of energy my body needs without the heart palpitations. There's nothing worse than trying a product that claims to be safe and give you energy and then you feel shaky the rest of the day. This product did not do that to me which I love! I love that this green tea is organic and safe! I definitely recommend this product to anyone wanting to try something new and different! 

Here is what the company has to say about the product:

USED FOR:  LATTES | SMOOTHIES | BAKING

​Scientists have discovered that Matcha Green Tea helps protect the skin from harmful UV rays, while improving blood flow and oxygen levels lifting the overall quality of the skin.

Antioxidants are essential as you age to boost your body's natural defenses against oxidation. Researchers have found that a high level of dietary antioxidants can prevent many age-related diseases.


I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.
