What we love: Navitas Organics’ plant-based superfoods, like cacao and chia seed, are a favorite of ours, and their matcha is no different. This matcha is of a high culinary grade, making it a great choice for baked goods (like Matcha Spritz Cookies and Chocolate-Matcha Butter Mochi Cake), as well as breakfast items (like Matcha Mango Chia pudding). This is also a budget-friendly option, at $18.85 per 3 ounces. We looked at sourcing, grade, taste, and texture to determine which matcha powders are the best. We tested each powder by mixing it with water, then using it in both hot and cold latte recipes. This process requires a specific set of tools, mainly a bowl and whisk. However, other tools such as a sifter and a precise kettle can help you take your matcha from good to great. Matcha setA curated matcha set is an excellent way to start your matcha journey at home because it contains all the tools you need and sometimes even more. This Fellow set is perfect for a counter-top display that doubles as decor. This one, from Rocky’s which includes a 20-gram matcha jar, does not require a designated space for storage or counter and still has the essentials.
