Bulletproof Matcha Latté
Prep Time 5 minutes
Cook Time 5 minutes
Total Time 10 minutes
Servings 1
Ingredients
- 2 cups water (or unsweetened nut milk)
- 1 serving Vital Proteins Collagen Peptides
- 1-2 tsp high-quality matcha green tea powder (I like Ippodo Tea or Chalait)
- 1/2 tsp Ghee (I use Fourth & Heart's Madagascar Vanilla Bean Ghee)
- 1 tsp cacao butter (actually tastes like white chocolate with zero sugar!)
Instructions
-
Boil water over the stove.
-
Meanwhile, add remaining ingredients to your blender. I prefer a Vitamix. The cacao butter should melt during blending.
-
Once the liquid is near boiling, pour into blender and turn on high to blend about 2-3 minutes, or until frothy. Enjoy!
Hey There! Do you have a recommended high-quality matcha green tea powder that you use? Thanks!
I’ve been really into MRM nutrition’s Matcha powder. Here’s the link– https://mrm-usa.com/shop/superfoods/superfoods-raw-matcha-green-tea-powder/
Hi Rachael. Does the almost-boiling temperature have any affect on the health benefits of the individual components? They are newer ingredients to me but I’d love to give this a try.
No, I’m not aware of any affects temperature has on the benefits 🙂
Do you have a discount code for the green matcha by chance?
Unfortunately, I do not 🙁
This sounds amazing! I’ll have to try this soon (not to mention vanilla bean ghee sounds ridiculous and I’m going to have to buy that ASAP)!

IM SO INTO THIS ?? gotta get some of this collagen stuff everyone’s using!
Hi Rachel! Happy birthday 🙂 just thought I would comment on your yummy matcha recipie because it’s my new fav! Have a great rest of your night birthday girl ??
Thanks so much <3
Hi there! My boyfriend has a nut allergy so I try to keep nuts/nut products at work and out of the house–do you have a suggestion for a substitution?
Is this a substitution for the almond milk?? You can always try organic soy milk
Okay to leave out spirulina if I don’t have any??
of course! 🙂 It tastes less ‘green’ that way anyway!
Do you have any recommended ways to help sweeten the latte?
Yes! You can add a splash of maple syrup or warm honey
K, girlfriend-just made this–and I love it! I’m trying to ditch the coffee for good, and I think you just helped me solve that problem! I love the vanilla/cinnamon combo-it tastes delicious! Thanks so much for such an awesome recipe!
Ah!! I’m so glad you enjoyed it! 🙂 You’re very welcome
Hello! I’ve indulged in so many matcha lattes and I just love them, With weather up here in Canada (well, where I am) becoming so warm, i’d love to make this as an iced latte! Any advice/suggestions?
Iced are delicious as well! 🙂 No need to heat the milk up– just add everything to a blender and pour over ice
Hi Rachael, I’m wondering if you eat breakfast in addition to this, or if you use this latte as a breakfast substitute? I’ve been reading up on bulletproof lattes, but since they’re much higher in calories I’m not sure of the proper way to consume them. Thanks!
I usually have a smaller breakfast or drink this between meals as a snack. This could easily be used in place of a breakfast if you add in the brain octane and ghee/grass fed butter to keep you full for several hours in the morning. I hope that helps! 🙂
I’ve been hearing so much about matcha and now I really would like to try it. I’m not much of a hot tea drinker, so could you tell me about the taste? Does adding the cinnamon/vanilla/ghee sweeten it up or does it still taste pretty green? Just curious before I take the plunge 🙂
Matcha is an amplified version of green tea– so if you’re unsure about the taste of green tea I’m not exactly sure you’d enjoy matcha! The ghee, cinnamon and vanilla definitely sweeten it up a bit 🙂 You can always try using very minimal matcha to start out and see how you like it!
Hey there! So I can only have coconut milk right now…would that be a okay substitute for the almond milk?
Thanks!
Of course! 🙂
Is there any way this can be made iced?
thank you
Is there a way to make this completely dairy free?
