Frequently Asked Questions About Cold brew matcha tea
What is the difference between cold brew matcha tea and iced matcha?
Cold brew matcha tea is made with cold water, while iced matcha may be whisked with hot water first and then poured over ice. The cold-water method tends to give a milder taste and avoids adding hot water.
Does cold brew matcha tea have caffeine?
Yes, cold brew matcha tea contains caffeine because matcha is made from powdered green tea leaves. The amount varies with how much matcha you use, so it is not automatically caffeine-free just because it is served cold.
How do you make cold brew matcha tea without clumps?
Sift the matcha powder into a small amount of cold water, then whisk or shake it vigorously before adding the rest of the water. A tightly sealed bottle or shaker helps disperse the powder evenly.
Does cold brew matcha tea have less caffeine than hot matcha?
Not necessarily. The caffeine in cold brew matcha tea depends mainly on the amount of matcha used; cold water does not make the drink caffeine-free. A smaller serving of powder will generally mean less caffeine.
Does cold brew matcha tea taste less bitter?
Often, yes: cold water can make cold brew matcha tea taste smoother and less bitter than matcha prepared with hot water. The matcha’s quality and the amount of powder still make a noticeable difference.
Can you add milk to cold brew matcha tea?
Yes, you can add dairy or plant-based milk to cold brew matcha tea. It makes the drink creamier, but mix the matcha thoroughly with water first to help prevent clumps.
Can cold brew matcha tea help with weight loss?
No, cold brew matcha tea does not cause weight loss or burn fat on its own. Choosing it unsweetened instead of a sugary drink can reduce added sugar, but matcha is not a weight-loss treatment.
How long does cold brew matcha tea keep in the fridge?
Cold brew matcha tea is best enjoyed freshly made. If you prepare it ahead, keep it covered in the refrigerator and drink it the same day; shake it again before serving because the powder settles.
Is cold brew matcha tea good before a workout?
It can be a suitable pre-workout drink if you tolerate caffeine, but it is not a substitute for water or food when those are needed. If caffeine makes you feel jittery, choose a caffeine-free option instead.
Can you make cold brew matcha tea with a matcha tea bag?
Usually, no: cold brew matcha tea is made with matcha powder, which suspends the whole finely ground tea leaf in the drink. A tea bag contains tea leaves that need to steep and produce a different kind of tea.

What is Cold brew matcha tea?
Cold brew matcha tea is made with matcha, finely ground Japanese green tea, mixed directly into cold water rather than steeped and strained. It is often shaken or whisked to disperse the powder evenly.
Its flavour is grassy and gently savoury, with a refreshing, usually less sharp taste when served cold. In Japan and elsewhere, it is enjoyed over ice as a café drink or made at home; it can also be combined with milk for a creamier version. Plain cold brew matcha tea is very light, with 3 calories per 100 g. Keep it unsweetened for a low-calorie drink, or pair it with fruit or a light snack.
