I have found the powdered teas really unusable for making a beverage,
at least if you want to drink the beverage.

I suppose if you're taking it intravenously or something it might be
fine.

They ARE excellent for making green tea ice cream, as well as sticky
rice flour balls that are flavoured with green tea. I suppose it
might actually not be bad to make a green tea yoghurt....
