Matcha should be prepared with water that is 180 degrees - any hotter will burn the tea and make it bitter. Warm your vessel before whisking, too, to keep the matcha warm. Using a bamboo whisk, whisk together a teaspoon of matcha and 8oz of water. Use a 'w' shape when whisking to get a good froth. Matcha does not dissolve in water, it suspends, so some settling may occur when consumed slowly. Just give it a swirl and enjoy!
