DESCRIPTION

There’s a quiet kind of magic in starting your day slowly — letting the world wake up one sip at a time. At Teacle, we see tea as more than a drink; it’s a mindful pause, a daily ritual that brings clarity and calm.
Butter Matcha, also known as Matcha Bulletproof, captures this balance perfectly — a creamy, energising blend that pairs the focus of matcha tea with the nourishing power of healthy fats.

What makes Butter Matcha so unique is its harmony of textures and effects. The velvety smoothness of butter, the natural umami of Japanese ceremonial matcha, and the gentle sweetness of honey or maple syrup create a drink that’s rich, grounding, and satisfying.

Unlike coffee, which delivers a quick burst of energy followed by a crash, matcha powder provides a steady flow of focus and calm — thanks to its combination of caffeine and L-theanine. When blended with good fats like butter or coconut oil, it sustains that energy even longer.

INGRIDIENTS

1 tsp ceremonial-grade matcha powder

200 ml hot water (75–80°C, not boiling)

2 tbsp hot water (not boiling — around 80°C / 175°F)

1 tsp unsalted butter or ghee

1 tsp coconut oil or MCT oil (optional)

1 tsp honey, maple syrup, or sweetener (optional)

Tips & Variations

For a dairy-free version, use vegan butter or skip it and use only coconut oil.

Add a pinch of cinnamon, vanilla extract, or sea salt for extra flavour.

For an iced version, blend first, then pour over ice.

For extra creaminess, replace water with warm oat milk or almond milk.

Use organic matcha powder for the best taste and smoothest texture.

INSTRUCTIONS

Sift the matcha into a bowl to remove any clumps.
Add hot water (not boiling) and whisk vigorously in a zigzag motion until frothy.
Pour the matcha into a blender, add butter (and coconut oil if using).
Blend for 20–30 seconds until the mixture becomes creamy and slightly foamy.
Pour into your favourite cup and enjoy the velvety, rich texture of your Butter Matcha.

The Ritual of Calm Energy

The secret to Butter Matcha lies in how its ingredients work together. Matcha naturally contains caffeine and L-theanine, a compound that promotes focus and calm at the same time. The healthy fats in butter or coconut oil slow the absorption of caffeine, creating smooth, long-lasting energy without jitters or crashes.
This combination makes Butter Matcha a favourite among wellness enthusiasts, students, and anyone seeking a natural way to boost focus while staying grounded.

🕒 When to Enjoy Butter Matcha

Butter Matcha is ideal for mornings when you need focus without overstimulation, or as a midday reset when energy starts to dip. It supports sustained productivity, mindfulness, and a sense of calm clarity — making it perfect for work, reading, journaling, or simply watching the rain fall outside your window.

🧺 Pair It With

Pair your Butter Matcha with Teacle’s Japanese Ceremonial Matcha Organic — the perfect powder for a rich, vibrant cup. Use a traditional bamboo whisk (chasen), a ceramic bowl, and a little quiet time.

🌿 Conclusion

In a world that moves faster every day, finding stillness can feel like a luxury. Yet, it’s in those small, intentional pauses — a slow breath, a quiet morning, a warm cup of tea — where balance truly lives. Butter Matcha embodies that pause. It’s not just about replacing your morning coffee or trying a trendy new drink; it’s about reclaiming your energy on your own terms.

Each sip of Butter Matcha is a moment to reconnect — with your senses, your body, and the present. The smooth creaminess of butter, the gentle richness of Japanese ceremonial matcha, and the delicate froth on top work together like a symphony of calm focus. It awakens the mind without overwhelming it, offering a sense of grounded clarity that lasts for hours.

At Teacle, we believe tea is more than a drink — it’s a ritual of care. Whether you’re preparing your first whisked bowl of matcha or perfecting your daily routine, what matters most is the experience itself. From the careful sifting of the powder to that first swirl of steam, tea invites you to slow down, to savour, to be here.

If you’ve never tried Butter Matcha, let this be your invitation to explore it — not just for its smooth energy, but for the calm it brings.
Use it as your morning meditation, your midday reset, or your creative spark.

Because in every cup, there’s a small reminder: energy doesn’t have to be rushed; it can be graceful.

FAQ’s

Can I use plant-based milk instead of regular milk?

Absolutely! Oat, almond, coconut, or soy milk all work beautifully in tea lattes. Choose your favorite based on taste and texture.

What kind of tea works best for lattes?

Matcha is perfect for lattes because it dissolves easily and has a rich, vibrant flavor. You can also use strong-brewed black tea (like in chai) or herbal teas if you prefer caffeine-free options.

How can I sweeten my tea latte without refined sugar?

Try natural sweeteners like maple syrup, agave, honey, or date paste. They add a gentle sweetness and bring extra flavor to the drink.

Do I need a bamboo whisk (chasen) to make matcha?

Not necessarily! A traditional bamboo whisk makes a beautiful froth, but you can also use a milk frother, small handheld mixer, or even a spoon — just make sure to sift the matcha first to avoid clumps.

Can I enjoy tea lattes iced?

Yes! Most tea lattes can be turned into iced versions. Just let the tea and milk cool, pour over ice, and enjoy a refreshing twist.

What type of matcha should I use in recipes?

For the best flavor and color, ceremonial grade matcha is ideal. But if you’re making lattes with milk and syrups, a good-quality culinary grade matcha works just fine.
