Morning Matcha: Coffee’s Healthy Alternative

Mornings are a little different in the Racqix household. Instead of reaching for coffee, we start our day with a vibrant cup of matcha tea. Packed with antioxidants and a gentle caffeine boost, matcha keeps us alert and energized — without the jitters of traditional coffee. Plus, it’s a delicious way to start the day on a healthy note.

Evening Ritual: Decaf for Calm

After a long day of work, workouts, or even a friendly tennis match, there’s nothing better than a warm cup of decaf tea before bed. We love the cozy, calming ritual of sipping something soothing, knowing it’s helping us relax and prepare for a restful night. Genuine Tea has an amazing selection of decaf teas that make winding down feel like a treat.

Why Tea Fits the Racqix Lifestyle

Just like we prioritize skill, community, and wellness in racquet sports, tea is part of our approach to balanced living. It’s a simple, mindful practice that reminds us to pause, breathe, and savor the little moments — whether we’re gearing up for a match or winding down after one.
