The Little Kitch loves Teapigs
I can't deny it anymore, Winter is officially here and the Little Kitchens' window is firmly shut.
One good thing however, is the fact you can treat yourself and indulge in a lovely warming mug of a hot tea. The Little Kitchen are big fans of Teapigs. There's just something in the way the tea leaves are delicately surrounded by a pyramid mesh, in its cool but subtle packaging...and now it even has its own Teapig channel with pretty funky 'how-to' videos. Go check them out - there's even some iced tea guides perfect for when the sun eventually comes back round again. http://www.youtube.com/

Review: teapigs 'super power' matcha
The other day an adorable little box dropped through our door - the new matcha powder from teapigs! I thought 'if this tastes as good as it looks we're in for a treat!'
If you aren't a tea buff you might ask , what is matcha? Well it's 100% organic tea leaves ground to a very fine powder - 1 cup of this powerful powder is equivalent to 15 cups of regular green tea!
Aside from lovely packaging, matcha has lots of other benefits too; it has 70x the antioxidants of orange juice, raises energy for 6 hours and was the winner of the best slimming and fitness product 2011!
To serve just add 1/2 a teaspoon of matcha to hot water (matcha green tea), hot milk (matcha latte) or fruit juices and smoothies - then whisk to keep it smooth.
I tried it out with a morning glass of apple juice to super-power my breakfast! A word of warning though- don't be to enthusiastic with your whisking though as you may cover yourself in matcha powder....
The matcha definitely has its own Tate but its not unpleasant despite it's strong colour, it is similar to green tea and tangy! I thought it was delicious with juice and I'm looking forward to trying it in other drinks too!
A selection of more adventurous recipes such as matcha tiramisu and matcha martini can be found on the teapigs website!

I love this super tea and I'll be drinking my daily serving until the tin runs out!
RRP £25 for 30g (30 servings)
