This nostalgic juicy blend will keep you feeling forever young. All the fond memories of snacking on bright strawberries and kiwi after a long day of playing in the sun.

Is it just us or does watermelon make you smile? Just one sip of Organic Watermelon Matcha will have you beaming. Bold statement, we know, but totally true. Especially when it’s in the form of this organic mix of juicy watermelon and energizing matcha. Oh, and did we mention this is our first-ever organic flavoured matcha? We can confirm that a combo this good has never been done before. Until now. It really is one of a melon.

What makes it great

A delightfully nostalgic watermelon flavour that’s perfect for matcha newbies and tea lovers with a sweet tooth.

Made with an organic & energizing matcha base to give you a delicious boost of energy.

Sip it on ice for a refreshing pick-me-up.
