Matcha devotees know that not all powders are created equal. And while the fresh-ground stuff is often more flavorful and aromatic, how many matcha lovers have time to grind leaves every single morning? Enter the Cuzen Matcha maker. To whip up any matcha drink, simply add tea leaves (caveat: it’s not recommended to use tea from brands other than Cuzen) and water to the machine, choose a strength option, and watch in awe as the appliance grinds and whisks them into a matcha shot. Your lucky recipients are sure to sing your praises with every matcha latte they get to enjoy in the comfort of home.
