Ceremonial Matcha Recipe

Matcha Chia Pudding

An emerald, spoonable ritual: creamy chia pudding infused with ceremonial matcha. Clean, lightly sweet (optional), and perfect for make-ahead mornings or a calm afternoon reset.

The texture

Emerald silk, no fuss

Chia turns milk into a gentle pudding overnight. Matcha adds brightness and a calm, clean lift. The key is dissolving matcha first so the pudding is evenly green — smooth, not speckled.

Keep sweetness subtle (or skip it) so matcha stays present. Vanilla + a tiny pinch of salt make it taste rounder.

The essentials

Ingredients & Ratio

This is a clean base you can scale. For thicker pudding, add more chia. For softer pudding, add a splash of milk in the morning.

Base

240 ml milk of choice
3 tbsp chia seeds (30–36 g)
120 g yogurt (optional, for extra creaminess)

Yogurt makes it richer; skip it for a lighter, dairy-free version.

Matcha blend

1.5–2 g ceremonial matcha (≈ 1 tsp)
30 ml water (to dissolve)
¼ tsp vanilla + pinch of salt

Dissolve matcha first for an evenly emerald pudding.

Optional toppings

Strawberries or blueberries
Banana slices
Pistachio or toasted coconut
Drizzle of honey (tiny)

Keep toppings simple so matcha stays clean and present.

How to

The ritual steps

Make a smooth matcha concentrate, mix, rest, mix again — then chill. The second stir is what makes it silky instead of clumpy.

1
Dissolve matcha
Whisk/froth 1 tsp matcha with 30 ml water until completely smooth. Stir in vanilla + a pinch of salt.
2
Mix the base
In a jar/bowl, combine milk, chia seeds, and yogurt (if using). Pour in the matcha mix and stir well.
3
Rest + stir again
Let sit 10 minutes, then stir again (this prevents chia clumps). Seal the jar.
4
Chill
Refrigerate 4–12 hours until thick and spoonable.
5
Finish + serve
Stir, taste, and adjust with a splash of milk if needed. Add simple toppings and enjoy.
Troubleshooting
Not thick enough?
Add 1 tbsp chia and rest 30 minutes more. Next time, use 4 tbsp chia for a firmer set.
Too thick?
Stir in milk a little at a time until silky. (Chia keeps absorbing, so a splash in the morning is normal.)
Green speckles?
Dissolve matcha first and stir thoroughly. Sifting matcha helps if it’s clumpy.
Spoon

Serving note Rest 10 minutes and stir again before chilling — it’s the difference between clumpy and silky.
