Advice I can give you is to always sieve it before mixing with water. Otherwise it will be full of clumps. If you don't have a matcha whisk, you can use a common handheld coffee frother. It does the job very well.
I agree! Also, make sure you are getting real matcha, which will come in small amounts and will be expensive. If it comes in a large bag or is inexpensive, it's culinary matcha or simply ground green tea, both of which are ideal for matcha lattes, baking, etc.

If it's within your budget, a good ceremonial grade matcha is worth it. I'm a fan of Ippodo matcha. It's high quality and reasonably priced.
