About Green Tea body Butter

Green tea butter is a flavored butter infused with green tea, typically using matcha powder or green tea leaves. This type of butter is both delicious and unique, offering a creamy texture combined with the earthy, slightly grassy flavor of green tea.

Green tea butter can be used in various ways, including as a spread on toast or scones, as a topping for baked goods like muffins or cookies, or as a cooking ingredient to add flavor to savory dishes like roasted vegetables or seafood.

How it's made:

1. Ingredients: It usually consists of unsalted butter, green tea (matcha powder is often preferred), and sometimes sweeteners like honey or maple syrup, depending on whether you want a savory or slightly sweet version.
2. Infusion: The green tea is typically mixed into softened butter, either by whisking matcha powder directly into the butter or by infusing melted butter with green tea leaves.
3. Chill: After mixing, its chilled until firm, making it ready to be spread or used as a cooking ingredient.

Benefits and Flavor:

• Flavor: The flavor of green tea butter is subtly vegetal, with an herbal and slightly bittersweet taste from the matcha. The butter helps balance and mellow the bitterness of the tea, making it more palatable for various uses.
• Health: Green tea is known for its health benefits, such as antioxidants (especially EGCG) and anti-inflammatory properties, though the amount you get from the butter is relatively small compared to drinking the tea itself.
