Over the past decade, I’ve seen many tea trends rise in popularity. About fifteen years ago, bubble tea swept through my area (Los Angeles) and still has a strong following today.

More recently, matcha green tea has taken center stage—not just in coffee shops, but in food as well. What started in desserts has expanded into creative uses like sauces, smoothies, and even burger buns!

One challenge with matcha is deciding which variety to try first. A great option is a
