Speaking with co-founder Marisa Poster, she said: 'Our mission is to make matcha as accessible as possible. People love the benefits, but not everyone has time to prepare it. Our canned lattes make enjoying high-quality matcha easy—anytime, anywhere.'
Stephen, who's managed to get his hands on a can (or two) has rated the ready-made Matcha Latte from Perfect Ted the full five stars. He went as far as calling them 'top notch' in fact. 'These are absolutely banging! They've got the level of sweetness just right to be able to have one first thing in the morning. My wife's ended up stealing half my first box.'
Another five-star reviewer called David followed suit, and added: 'Really great flavour, smooth to drink, and has that hint of matcha I love.' He also called them 'smoooth', to which we would have to agree.

Unlike coffee or synthetic energy drinks, matcha's caffeine provides a steady boost for 4–6 hours with thanks to its unique blend of caffeine and L-theanine, ensuring a calm, sustained lift without jitters or crashes.
Additionally, matcha helps promote the production of serotonin, dopamine, and alpha brain waves, enhancing relaxation and focus. Pretty cool, right?
Rich in antioxidants (we're talking 50 times more than spinach!), matcha is scientifically proven to improve mental clarity and alertness.

Fashion giant with 90 branches in UK closes store in popular Scottish shopping centre
It's not the first Scottish branch the retailer has closed down this year SHUTTERS DOWN Fashion giant with 90 branches in UK closes store in popular Scottish shopping centre Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A FASHION giant with 90 branches in the UK has closed down a major Scottish store. Superdry has shut its unit in a popular Glasgow shopping centre. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 3 Superdry has closed down another Scottish store for good Credit: Google 3 The unit has been shut down in Glasgow's popular Silverburn shopping centre Credit: Getty The brand, founded in 2003, is famed for combining vintage American styling with Japanese-inspired graphics. The British clothing retailer is best known for selling both men's and women's jackets, hoodies, t-shirts and much more. A sign has now appeared in the window of the Silverburn store, notifying customers of the news. According to Barrhead News, the notice reads: "This store is now closed. "You can continue to shop the full collection at Google also shows the Silverburn branch as "permanently closed". Earlier this year, the retailer closed down its store on Aberdeen's Union Square. The shop shut up for good on Saturday, February 15. A spokesperson said at the time: "We evaluate the performance of each of our stores on an ongoing basis and can confirm that our store in Aberdeen will be closing. "We will continue to explore new store locations and opportunities as they become available." Beloved department store chain shutting more locations with clearance sales on now until final May 25 deadline We previously told how shoppers were warned a wave of devastating high street closures is set to continue — as crisis-hit retailers are hammered by a 'perfect storm'. Our research showed major brands have pulled the shutters down on at least 25 Scots outlets this year — leaving scores of empty units across our towns and cities. And experts predicted the alarming rate of axed stores — plus jobs losses — will spiral as businesses face rising costs. There was devastating news over the weekend as it emerged one of the UK's favourite brands, River Island, was in financial difficulty. It has 230 stores across the UK, with 20 north of the border. That follows luxury fashion retailer Michael Kors suddenly shutting its store on Glasgow's Buchanan Street in April. Other chains including Farmfoods, Quiz, Timberland, Home Store + More, Sports Direct, Lids, Monki, Morrisons, Superdry, FatFace, Hollister, Nike and Beaverbrooks have also axed premises.
