The teapigs matcha bar will gives curious customers and healthistas alike a taste of the health sensation that is matcha with an array of matcha based drinks and snacks; traditional matcha green tea, matcha lattes, matcha kit kats and even a few cheeky matcha cocktails. You'll also be able to learn first-hand all about this super power green tea and stock up on your supply.
teapigs will also be hosting a series of events during the week including a special workshop on mindfulness from modern meditation experts, Headspace, and a talk from healthy eating expert, Natasha Corrett from Honestly Healthy.
For those that don't know, matcha is 100% organic green tea leaves that have been grown down to a fine powder. It contains 15 times the health benefits of regular green tea, 6 times the antioxidants of goji berries and 70 times the antioxidants of orange juice. It is reported to give a slow release of energy lasting up to 6 hours and to boost metabolism.
So get down there and beat the January blues!
