Ambler, Pennsylvania-based Tatsu Tea is the first company to offer matcha with electrolytes, vitamin C and zinc. Developed by a dietician and his wife, Tatsu Tea was originally intended for people who needed relief from symptoms of jet lag and hangovers. Tatsu Tea’s electrolyte content also makes it perfect for athletes, who can lose electrolytes during workouts. Preparation is simple as it only needs to be added to a bottle of water and shaken.
