Alice in Matchaland
Inspired by the Lewis Carroll classic, this original adaptation of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland explores the world of sweet and delicious desserts made from Japanese green tea (matcha).
Featuring the colorful artwork of Mosoko Miyatsuki, the new adventure follows an adorable Alice as she winds her way through the forest in a quest for the perfect cup of matcha.
Along the way, she encounters many of the beloved characters from the original tale, including the Mad Hatter, the White Rabbit, the Cheshire Cat, and, of course, the Queen of Hearts - all of whom offer Alice a matcha treat or two.
Alice in Matchaland is not just pure fairy tale, though. Sprinkled throughout the pages are more than a dozen real recipes for the matcha-flavored sweets that Alice enjoys, including:
