Editor’s note: In this monthly column writer Lisa Spear indulges her sweet tooth by sampling desserts made at area restaurants.
Matcha is simply tea, finely ground into a bright green powder, served hot or cold in a highly caffeinated beverage. It is a nice substitute for coffee in the morning, but now you can have it in cheesecake, too, at least at the teahouse Dobrá Tea on Main Street, Northampton, a place that re-imagines what it means to have teatime.
