DIY Matcha Elixir Powder (The Perfect Gift for the Holidays)

It’s beginning to look a lot like…..

Christmas!

The holidays are HERE and I am going to say something radical. Maybe instead of buying all of your gifts this year, maybe make some of them instead. I always assumed that since I wasn’t a kid anymore that nobody would want a homemade gift. But when homemade gifts are awesome like this matcha elixir (which I would probably pay top dollar for from any given ‘wellness’ company) then why wouldn’t you?

It makes a very thoughtful gift for all of your friends or even your coworkers.  Anyone who loves wellness and superfoods, this is for them!

Now, let’s make some presents!

Hi Friends!! Happy Thursday!

We are heading off to Hawaii for a wedding today and I couldn’t be more excited!  I am talking sun, sand and hopefully some really awkward tan lines. coming. my. way.

We chose to stay at an airbnb which I love because being able to cook my own meals wins over relying on hotel food and eating out every time.  I know that Maui will have GREAT food (I already booked us an organic farm tour and lunch) but I still want to be able to prepare my own food from time to time. I have a feeling this refreshing matcha basil limeade might make it into the Hawaii mix.  Are you ready to give this a try?
