Savoring the Experience:
In Japanese tea ceremonies, it is customary to enjoy a small sweet before sipping matcha, both for the flavor and as a slight buffer to the stomach. Traditional Japanese sweet treats enjoyed with Matcha are known as wagashi. They are typically made from plant-based ingredients such as pounded rice with bean paste known as mochi, pressed sugar candies that melt in the mouth quickly, jellied yokan sweets, wafer-style confections, or sweets made with yams. Get creative and make your own matcha ceremony sweets.
