Description
"The whole leaf, ground to a powder and whisked into water."
Matcha | 100% plant-based product | Ground green tea leaves
Matcha: the tea where you drink the whole leaf
Liovela matcha – finely ground green tea leaves, a 100% plant-based product.
The ingredients list has one line: matcha (ground green tea leaves). Instead of steeping leaves and straining them out, you whisk the fine powder into liquid. It is a traditional Japanese tea that also works in smoothies, shakes, desserts, puddings, ice cream and biscuits, and as an addition to muesli, yoghurt and porridge. It gives intense colour and a bold flavour. Important: high caffeine content, not recommended for children, pregnant or breast-feeding women.
What it's for
Three main uses
Matcha the Japanese way
Whisk the powder into a small amount of warm (not boiling) water with a bamboo whisk or small hand whisk until a light froth forms.
Green drinks
Add to the blender with banana, plant-based drink or fruit. The drink turns an intense green.
Puddings, ice cream, biscuits
Add to biscuits, puddings or homemade ice cream. Matcha brings green colour and a bold flavour.
Good to know
Caffeine and storage
High caffeine content. Not recommended for children, pregnant or breast-feeding women. Start with a small amount, as matcha is used a little at a time.
Keep matcha in a dry, cool place, well closed after opening, as the fine powder easily takes up moisture.

Matcha: 5 ways to use it
Hot or cold
Whisk half a teaspoon of powder into a little warm water so it does not clump, then combine with frothed plant-based or regular milk. Add ice for a cold version.
In the blender
Blend half a teaspoon of matcha with banana, spinach or mango and plant-based drink. The green colour will be intense.
A bowl topping
Stir a little matcha into yoghurt, or sprinkle into porridge or muesli. Start with a small amount, the flavour is bold.
A dessert idea
Mix 2 tablespoons of chia seeds with 150 ml of plant-based drink and half a teaspoon of matcha. Leave in the fridge for 30 minutes.
Green colour and flavour
Add matcha to biscuit dough or to the mixture for homemade ice cream. Whisk it first into a little liquid so it does not leave lumps.
Add Liovela matcha to your basket and make your first green latte.
Matcha | The numbers
The numbers
36.4 g of fibre and 29.9 g of protein per 100 g.
100 g of matcha is 303 kcal, 36.4 g of fibre and 29.9 g of protein. Under EU rules we can describe it as high in fibre and high in protein (the protein provides about 40% of the energy). Bear in mind that matcha is used in small amounts, so these figures refer to 100 g of product, not to a single serving. Fat is 3.74 g (of which saturates 0.81 g), carbohydrates 19.1 g (of which sugars 1.4 g) and salt less than 0.01 g. The full table is further down the page.
Did you know?
A word that means “powdered tea”
The name matcha comes from Japanese and means roughly “powdered tea”. It differs from ordinary green tea in that you do not strain the leaves out, but drink them with the liquid as a fine powder.
Who Liovela matcha is for
For anyone who likes a bold, green flavour
For those who like green tea in a new form, green froth in lattes and colour in desserts. For fans of smoothies, puddings and home baking. For adults who remember that it is a product with a high caffeine content.
