Discovering Uji Matcha Lemon Tea
Nestled in the heart of Sugamo, Yamaneen has proudly introduced its new Uji Matcha Lemon Tea, a perfect marriage of flavors that brings together the richness of Uji matcha and the refreshing tartness of lemon. This innovative beverage is not only a treat for the taste buds but also a delightful way to enjoy the unique qualities of Japanese tea.
The Ingredients
Rich Uji Matcha Flavor
The base of this exquisite tea is high-quality Uji matcha sourced from Kyoto. Known for its deep, umami-rich flavor, Uji matcha adds a luxurious depth to the drink. The intense green color speaks to its quality, promising a refreshing experience.
Bright Lemon Aroma
When blended with lemon, the matcha transforms into a bright, zesty drink full of character. Lemon, with its invigorating scent and tangy taste, complements the matcha perfectly, creating a balance that is at once refreshing and satisfying.
Natural Sweetness from Hokkaido
Yamaneen is committed to using natural ingredients in all its products. This matcha lemon tea features sugar made from domestically sourced Hokkaido beet sugar. This choice ensures a gentle sweetness that enhances the overall flavor without overshadowing the star ingredients. By avoiding artificial sweeteners, Yamaneen focuses on delivering a drink that is not only delicious but also wholesome.
Convenient Powder Format
One of the remarkable aspects of Yamaneen's Uji Matcha Lemon Tea is its powder format. In just a few moments, you can create your perfect cup by simply dissolving the powder in hot or cold water. This convenient characteristic makes it an ideal beverage for any occasion, whether you're enjoying a quiet morning at home or need a quick pick-me-up at the office.
Enjoy it Hot or Iced
To prepare a warm cup of lemon tea, add three heaping teaspoons (approximately 8g) of the powder into your cup and pour in about 100ml of hot water, stirring gently to combine. For an invigorating iced version, mix the same amount with cold water and add ice cubes for a refreshing drink on warm days. For those who prefer a creamier taste, adding a splash of milk is highly recommended.
Where to Buy
You can find Yamaneen's Uji Matcha Lemon Tea on their official website starting at ¥1,700 for an 80g pack. It's also available on their Rakuten Store for the same price. Treat yourself to this unique blend and savor the delightful experience it offers.
