Red Leaf Tea carries a wide variety of tea products. They have an extensive array of matcha flavors. I received caramel matcha for review purposes.
What is matcha? Matcha is powdered green tea. It's much stronger than your usual cup of tea, and a little bit goes a long way. The sample I received was a total of 10 grams to make 5 servings.
Red Leaf Tea's match is 100% natural and contains only 4 calories per serving. The price breaks down to under $0.99/serving. It contains no food coloring, MSG, artificial sweeteners, or preservatives.
The suggested recipes included with my sample were for a cold latte or a hot latte, each using only 1/2 teaspoon of matcha. When I was first introduced to matcha, I tried adding a little bit to all sorts of things. Having the caramel flavor in the matcha this time meant that this wouldn't be something I'd put in my rice, but I was eager to see what it could do for cookies!
Fortunately, Brianna is always up for a spot of baking, and she whipped these cookies up.
Take a minute to poke around the Red Leaf Tea website. Beyond the many kinds of matcha they have available, you'll find interesting treasures like Wine Infused Tea and both loose tea and pre-bagged teas in countless flavors.

See the green in the bowl? Not usually a color one associates with Chocolate Chip Cookies!

The kids were enthusiastic about the new flavor.
They were really good! The caramel flavor came through without the bitterness sometimes associated with green tea.
