Snacks don’t have to be the destroyer of diet and healthy living when consumed in moderation. There are treats and mini bites that can satisfy sweet cravings without consuming preservatives and artificial flavorings. Some snacks combined with a healthy drink with only minimal sugar can fill tummies after a few bites and sips. When it comes to healthy eating, green tea can be mixed with desserts and drinks to make these tastier and healthier. Best of all, they can make everyone satisfied and feel rejuvenated after snacking. When healthy, antioxidant-filled foods and teas are the topics, the healthiest and simultaneously tastiest natural tea is Japanese green tea. Here are the snacks that really go well with this tea.

Ghirardelli Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips

Some of us see this brand of chocolate drinks but since we love to drink matcha, the semi-sweet chocolate chips will be a nice delight for tea lovers who don’t want too many sweet desserts on their plate. Semi-sweet because the chocolate bits are only lightly sweetened with the right amount of sugar. While uncertain if Ghirardelli will ever release a matcha-flavored chocolate, in the meantime you can enjoy eating their food products with this healthy drink.  Just add a spoon of green tea powder any time Ghirardelli chips are used in a baking recipe. What is certain is green tea tastes really great with this rich chocolate or vice versa. 

Depending upon what food type or health goals you want to achieve, Japanese green tea lovers will love these snacks – especially when they become bored with only consuming plain green tea almost every day. With creativity and recipe knowledge, teatime will always be a pleasant experience. Just don’t forget to consume moderately and always brush your teeth.
