Matcha jelly with Litchi / Matcha želé s Litchi

Matcha is a fine-ground, powdered, high-quality green tea. The original Matcha tea came from China, where it was favoured by Zen monks for its healing and wellness properties. Green tea health benefits are attributed to antioxidants, vitamins C and A, L-theanine, and catechins. However, the most powerful healing substance in green tea may be due to Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) having strong anti-cancer and anti-aging benefits.
