Okay, so I jumped on the MUD/WTR bandwagon, specifically their :rise Matcha, and I have to say, it’s been a game-changer for my morning routine! After seeing so many people rave about it as a coffee alternative, I decided to give it a try when I saw this box for just $30 – and with a frother included, too! I figured it would last me ages, and so far, it totally has. It’s like getting a long-lasting supply of wellness in one go. First off, let's talk about the powder itself. When you open the MUD/WTR :rise Matcha container, you’re greeted with this light green, almost soil-like powder, and it has a distinctly earthy smell. It's not off-putting at all, just very natural and hints at the wholesome ingredients within. I've heard some people worry about the texture, but honestly, it blends beautifully into a smooth liquid. Now, for the best part: making the perfect MUD/WTR Matcha latte! This is my go-to preparation method for a truly delicious and smooth drink that gives me that pleasant, awakening effect. I start by adding a scoop of the MUD/WTR powder to my mug. Then, I pour in a small amount of hot water – just enough to create a paste and dissolve the powder. This is crucial for preventing clumps and ensuring a creamy consistency! Next, I grab the frother that came with the box. Seriously, this frother is surprisingly high quality, even charging with a convenient USB-C cable, which is a huge plus. I use it to whisk the powder and hot water until it’s perfectly smooth and a little foamy. Once that's done, I fill my clear glass with ice (because I love a cold drink!) and add my favorite oat milk. Finally, I pour the frothed MUD/WTR mixture over the ice and oat milk, give it a gentle stir with a straw, and voilà – a beautiful, green, foamy latte! The taste is definitely earthy, as expected, but in a very pleasant way. It's not overly bitter like some traditional matcha can be, and the oat milk really complements its natural flavors, making it surprisingly palatable even for those new to matcha. What I love most is the 'awakening effect' it provides. Unlike coffee, where I often get jitters and then a crash, MUD/WTR gives me this steady, focused energy throughout the morning. It feels much gentler on my system, and I don't experience that afternoon slump. It’s truly a fantastic coffee alternative if you're looking for something that supports sustained well-being without the harsh buzz and crash. If you're on the fence about trying MUD/WTR, especially the matcha flavor, I highly recommend it – especially if you can snag a box with a frother!
