Holy shit, matcha fans, the good folks over at Matcha Made are now stocked at Coles. Yep, the little local brand that went viral on TikTok (2.6 million views and counting) for its sweet pink nectar can now be picked up in your weekly grocery shop.
The perfectly portioned sachets come in strawberry and vanilla blends, so you can make a delicious strawberry matcha to help you get through that 3pm slump. Plus, they’ll only set you back around $1.50 per cup. In this economy? How good?!
If this is the first you’ve heard of the delicious drink, let us introduce you. Sustainably sourced from Uji, Kyoto, the Matcha Made powder is an organic Japanese ceremonial-grade blend naturally sweetened with coconut sugar.

The blend contains only 30mg of caffeine, compared to 95 mg in standard coffee. The green tea leaves naturally contain L-theanine, an amino acid that promotes relaxation and improves focus and concentration when combined with caffeine. Plus, it contains a high concentration of antioxidants that can aid detoxification, inflammation, and overall immune function.
The bottom line is that it’s delicious and probably better for you than your go-to cold brew.
If you’ve only ever treated yourself to a café-bought cup, you’ll be happy to know that it’s surprisingly easy to make at home. All you have to do is whisk one and a half teaspoons with warm water, top it off with either steamed milk, hot water, or cold milk over ice, and enjoy!
Yep, it’s as simple as that. The Strawberry Matcha Latte and Vanilla Matcha Latte is available at your local Coles store for $15 for 10 sachets. Otherwise, you can buy canisters directly from the brand below.
Now, if you’ll excuse me, I need to head to the supermarket.
