🍵 Eat Through the Weekend w/Me:Matcha Fest Edition

Stopped by BLOCK & DRUM for Matcha Fest today, and it was pure magic! ✨ So many creative vendors serving up beautifully crafted matchas, but Notcha Matcha stole the show for me. Their Blueberry Earthday Matcha was a 10/10 — the perfect balance of earthy matcha and sweet lavender-blueberry. 💜 Plus, they’re plant-based + Black-owned, which made supporting them even sweeter. 🌱🖤

Watching the matcha whisked right in front of me? Chef’s kiss. 👩🏽‍🍳🍵

Can’t wait to show you what else I’m sipping + snacking on next weekend 👀💚

If you're a matcha enthusiast or just curious about exploring new and vibrant flavors, the Matcha Fest at BLOCK & DRUM in Atlanta is a must-visit. Among the diverse offerings from creative vendors, Notcha Matcha stands out with their signature Blueberry Earthday Matcha, which beautifully intertwines the deep, earthy notes of traditional matcha with a sweet, floral hint of lavender and blueberry. This combination not only excites the palate but also highlights the innovation happening in the matcha world. What makes Notcha Matcha even more special is its commitment to being plant-based and Black-owned, supporting sustainable and inclusive business practices—a detail cherished by conscious consumers who value ethical sourcing and community empowerment. The experience goes beyond just tasting; witnessing the skilled whisking of matcha in front of you adds an artisanal touch to your visit, turning beverage preparation into a delightful performance. This live preparation not only ensures the freshest cup but also connects you more deeply with the cultural heritage of matcha. For those new to matcha or looking to elevate their matcha game, Matcha Fest also offers a wide array of variations such as Banana Pudding Matcha, Sweet Potato Matcha, Caramel Apple Matcha, and unique iced versions that cater to different tastes and preferences. These creative spins on classic matcha beverages can inspire you to experiment with matcha in your home kitchen as well. Atlanta’s food scene continues to shine with events like Matcha Fest, bringing together local artisans and matcha lovers for a festive weekend. Whether you're hunting for the perfect blend, interested in plant-based options, or simply seeking a relaxing way to enjoy the green tea buzz, this event delivers. Keep an eye out for sneak peeks on what other delicious matcha concoctions and snacks will be featured next weekend—there’s always something new and exciting to sip and snack on. So, why not join in, support local businesses, and indulge in the vibrant world of matcha right in the heart of Atlanta?
