Houjicha Chocolate Mix
Enjoy the rich, roasted aroma of houjicha, a Japanese green tea that's been slowly toasted, mingling with the velvety smoothness of dark chocolate.
This heavenly combination creates a unique latte blend that is both earthy and indulgent.
The houjicha chocolate mix starts with a base of finely ground, toasty tea leaves, which impart a slightly nutty and caramelized flavor. When blended with luxurious chocolate, the result is a deep, complex richness balanced by the natural sweetness of the cocoa.
As you sip, the comforting warmth of the latte envelops your senses, with each taste offering a subtle smokiness from the houjicha followed by the rich, creamy texture of the chocolate.
Perfect for cozy evenings or a relaxing morning, this blend brings together the best of both worlds— the lightness of tea and the decadence of chocolate— making every sip a blissful experience.
How to Brew
Latte: Sift 4g (2tsp) of houjicha chocolate mix into your bowl. Add 20ml of warm water and whisk in circular motions until smooth and clump-free, forming a thick paste. Gently add an additional 20ml of warm water and whisk in a “W” motion until you achieve a creamy consistency and a fine foam appears.
To finish, lightly glide your whisk across the surface to smooth the texture and break large bubbles, then lift it gently from the center.
For an iced latte, pour 100ml of your desired milk into a glass with ice. For a hot latte, steam 100ml of your desired milk into a mug.
Pour your prepared houjicha over your milk, add sugar to taste, mix, and enjoy!
How to Store
Keep your houjicha chocolate mix stored in an airtight container in a cool, dark place away from humidity and light. For best flavor, consume within about six months of shipping.
