Notes

MATCHA POWDER. Use your favorite high-quality matcha powder for this matcha chia pudding. 
MILK. Use your favorite kind. I always like to use oat milk, but coconut milk can create a thicker, creamier chia pudding.
SWEETENER. I find matcha powder to be bitter without any sweetener. Make sure to add your preference of sweetener: maple syrup or honey are my favorites. Adding sweetener also makes sure that the chia seed pudding thickens.
CONSISTENCY. If you have a thing about consistency, you can always blend your chia seed pudding. You can also sift your matcha powder before integrating into the chia pudding.
STORAGE. I like to use small Weck jars with clamps, they're the perfect size! I find them here.
