Description
This Mounjaro-inspired tea is simple and soothing. Made with matcha, kelp, and fresh ginger, it draws from Japanese traditions that value calm and balance. It’s a quiet kind of brew that helps with digestion, clears the mind, and fits easily into your daily rhythm.
Ingredients
1 tsp ceremonial-grade matcha powder
1/2 tsp finely chopped or powdered kelp (kombu)
1/2 tsp fresh grated ginger (or 1/4 tsp ground ginger)
A pinch of dried yuzu peel or lemon zest (optional)
1 cup hot water (just below boiling)
1 tsp raw honey (optional)
Instructions
Warm a cup of water to around 175°F.
In a small bowl, add matcha, kelp, ginger, and a touch of citrus zest if you like.
Pour the water in slowly, whisking until smooth.
Add a bit of honey if desired.
Sip it warm and take your time.
Notes
To enjoy it cold, let it cool down and serve over ice.
For a smooth, creamy finish, mix in oat or coconut milk. If you’re not used to kelp, begin with a small amount and adjust to your taste.
If you have thyroid issues, it’s best to speak with your doctor before adding this to your routine.
