The New, Healthier Crack. posted on July 6, 2006 02:07 PM by i am a bad little goth girl.

jambajuice.jpg If you don't live around a Jamba Juice, it sucks to be you. They have come out with a bunch of new ways to get you wired, naturally. We're pretty excited about these, because most people don't know about their secret ingredient. Knowing things that other people don't is what makes us cool.

For those of you that aren't cool enough to know, matcha is green tea powder that packs a great natural-caffeine punch. It's also crammed with antioxidants, so you can pretend that you're not going to get cancer as you slam back one of these matcha shots and chase it with a Parliament. You hipster, you.

What's a matcha shot? It's matcha powder (duh) shaken with OJ, or Soy, or OJ and Soy, or your mom. This tiny 4 oz shot of sweet, healthy bliss has 37 mg of caffeine. Drink two double shots of matcha and your skin is going to crawl, guaranteed.

If you don't live anywhere near the proximity of this commercialized hippie-fest, you can also buy your own matcha direct from Japan and collect some major snob points.

30 grams of fresh green tea powder, direct from o-cha.com is only $15.95.
