itrytobeHelsinki-based tea shop Teemaatea recently posted a 擂茶 leicha recipe on instagram, and it's something i've been curious about for a while. i decided to give it a try today.
unfortunately, it suffered a bit from my chronic inability to follow instructions. (Teemaatea was kind enough not to judge me too much on instagram, though.) i decided to increase the amount of rice and replace half of the peanuts with mung beans. i didn't increase the amount of water, though, so it became way too thick. it tastes pretty good though, i like the peanut so i might add the full amount next time after all. and i don't need to increase the amount of rice at all, the recipe makes much more than i expected! looks like i'll have 擂茶 for breakfast for the next few days.
