Matcha, its been my lifeline in my career. I wrote 5 books off the stuff… and on the stuff…
I’ve been the youngest female advisor who sits in the board at the largest matcha + green tea purveyor in the world, straight from Japan for the past 5++ years.
I report direct to all of the Japanese and American + global teams. We are a large part of the reason why and how matcha has become wildly popular😍🍵. We made it readily available + gave you access to recipes + it’s magical benefits.⚡⚡⚡
I’ve traveled all over the nation: LA, Honolulu, Miami, NY, San Diego, San Fran, just to speak on matcha alone, for the past 6 years.
Knowledge is powerful: History notes, tea “purifies the body” + “calms the mind.” Studies show my Japanese ancestors are getting benefits like cardiovascular health+ green tea may reduce the risk of cancer, attributed to the tea’s antioxidant powers.
Matcha + green tea has restorative properties + helps w/ cognitive brain health, bone health + oral hygiene, so smile, babes. Yassss matcha queen!⚡⚡

Candice’s Creamy Coconut Almond Milk Latte
Homemade Matcha Coconut Latte!? Yeah girl, you know this Japanese-American girl has you covered! No excess chemicals, sweeteners or bs.. just straight homemade love xx Traditionally, you would make matcha with a chasen (a bamboo whisk) + 175-185 degree water. In this recipe, we are going to try it in a Vitamix, easy morning deliciousness.
Makes 2 lattes
Ingredients:
2 teaspoons high quality matcha (matcha love by ito en)
2 cups just under boiling water (175-185 degrees F)
1-2 tablespoons coconut manna//coconut butter (you can find this at a health food store, in a jar;))
1/4 cup almond milk (unsweetened is best)
sweetener (if desired to taste, optional) I prefer mine unsweetened
Directions:
- Place your matcha powder in a bone-dry Vitamix. Add your hot water, and coconut manna/butter and carefully blend on low, and after a few seconds, carefully bring to medium-high power. Blend for about 10-15 additional seconds. Add sweetener if desired.
- Pour into desired serving cups and pour your fave almond milk into the side of the bowl to top off. Drink! xxx ck
