🔪 Step-by-Step Instructions
1️⃣ Prepare the Matcha Base
-
Sift 1 tsp (2 g) of matcha into your Chawan with the Furui (Sifter).
-
Add 60 ml (2 oz) of hot water (~77 °C / 170 °F).
-
Whisk vigorously with your Chasen in a “W” motion until frothy and bright green.
2️⃣ Warm the Milk and Fats
-
In a small saucepan, heat your milk gently over low heat.
-
Add coconut oil (or MCT oil) and butter/ghee.
-
Stir continuously until melted and smooth.
-
Avoid boiling — gentle warmth helps everything blend evenly.
3️⃣ Combine and Emulsify
-
Pour the hot matcha into a blender (or use a frother).
-
Add the milk and oil mixture.
-
Blend for 10–15 seconds until the drink becomes creamy and lightly foamy.
-
Sweeten if desired, then pour into a mug.
4️⃣ Serve with Intention
-
Optionally dust with cinnamon or add a drop of vanilla.
-
Take a moment before sipping — notice the color, aroma, and warmth.
-
Drink slowly, allowing the energy to unfold naturally.
🌸 Pro Tips for the Perfect Bulletproof Matcha
-
Use MCT oil for faster energy release — perfect for morning focus.
-
Avoid overheating matcha. High heat reduces its natural flavor and nutrients.
-
Blend well. Proper emulsification gives the drink its silky, latte-like texture.
-
Use ceremonial-grade matcha for smoother flavor and better focus benefits.
-
Sweeten mindfully. Natural, low-glycemic options like monk fruit or stevia work best.

🧽 Cleaning and Care
