Once in awhile, we all crave something that is dark, bitter AND sweet. Yes, I’m talking about chocolate!
To tie matcha with chocolate once again, we have another awesome recipe for you to enjoy: Matcha Green Tea Chocolate by the fabulous Vy from@kieuvyle
Vy is 25-years old, from Vietnam, and currently a computer science student at Cabrillo College in Aptos, California. In her spare time, she loves to cook, create artworks and work on DIY projects. She is also a big fan of matcha green tea and her favorite brand is Kenko!
Being a college student, she used to drink energy drinks everyday to keep her awake at school. Then she learnt about the health benefits of matcha and made the switch from energy drinks to green powder.
