Beautiful gift for matcha fans!
Color: Pink, Color: Pink
My daughter is obsessed with matcha, so when I found this for Easter I knew it was the one. She makes her own latte every single morning, so this fit perfectly into her routine. The packaging alone is gorgeous — the colors worked beautifully with the Easter basket without me having to do much styling at all. Everything she needs to make her matcha was included in the box, nothing missing, nothing to track down separately. I was so happy I stumbled across this, and she absolutely loved it. Honestly one of those gifts that just lands exactly right.
