Blue Matcha

Blue Matcha is a caffeine-free powder made from finely ground blue butterfly flower, distinguished by its intense blue color and mild herbal character. The "matcha" in its name refers not to Japanese green tea, but to the process of preparing the product by dispersing and whisking it in water.

It offers a soft, slightly herbaceous, and nearly neutral profile on the palate. Thanks to its calm flavor profile, it easily pairs with ingredients such as milk, plant-based milk, honey, vanilla, and citrus. When acidic ingredients like lemon are added, its natural pigments react, and its color changes from blue to purple.

Product Structure

• Blue Butterfly Flower Powder: Intense natural blue color; mildly herbal, soft and nearly neutral flavor.

The Story of the Name

The name "Blue Matcha" comes from the fact that it's prepared as a fine powder, like classic matcha, and then whisked before consumption. However, while authentic Japanese matcha is made from tea leaves, Blue Matcha is made solely from blue butterfly flowers. Their common elements are their preparation methods; however, their flavors, origins, and caffeine content are entirely different.

Aroma: Light herbal, soft and close to neutral.
Palate: Delicate, calm, and slightly herbaceous; highlighting the character of the accompanying ingredients.
Finish: Clean, short, and with elegant floral notes.

Caffeine Content

It is naturally caffeine-free. It does not contain Camellia sinensis, green tea, or classic Japanese matcha.

How to Use?

• Simple: Its subtle botanical character and intense natural blue color are most clearly visible.

• As a latte: When prepared with milk or plant-based milk, it becomes a smoother and creamier drink.

• For a cold version: It can be prepared by whisking with some lukewarm water, then adding cold water, milk, and ice.

• With lemonade: The acidity of the lemon changes the color from blue to purple, giving the drink a vibrant and refreshing character.

• In recipes: It can be used to add a natural color to smoothies, cocktails, yogurt, cream, ice cream, cakes, cookies, and various desserts.

• By sweetening: Honey, vanilla, or a light sugar syrup rounds off the product's calm, herbal character.

Suggested Preparation Method

Add 2–3 g of Blue Matcha to 200 ml of water at 60–70°C and whisk with a bamboo whisk or hand frother until completely dispersed.
