Matcha Nama Chocolates are made by mixing earthy matcha powder with high quality white chocolate

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.

You can learn more about Vy through herinstagram!

This Matcha Green Tea Chocolate recipe was inspired by Namiko Chen. Vy has used and adapted the recipe fromNamiko’s Youtube channel as her reference to these lovely matcha chocolates.

Both matcha and chocolate are known for their ability to relieve stress and boost your mood. So whenever you feel like you’re under the pump, whip up these green chocolates and relax.
