If you’re someone who can’t start the day without a good cup of bubble tea, or you’re just constantly on the lookout for the next big flavour craze in town, then there’s something brewing at Playmade Singapore that deserves your attention. This time, it’s all about matcha — but not just any ordinary matcha. Playmade has reimagined this Japanese favourite with a bold, modern twist in their brand-new Matcha Series, and they’ve just launched it from 17 June 2025 onward at all their outlets across Singapore.
Now, for those familiar with Playmade, they’d know that this brand doesn’t shy away from innovation. Known for their handcrafted pearls and unique flavour pairings, they’ve consistently pushed the boundaries of traditional bubble tea. Their Pink Cactus and Burnt Caramel pearls caused a stir when first introduced, and the creative approach they apply to both tea and toppings keeps Singapore’s bubble tea scene alive with excitement.
So what’s new with this Matcha Series?
Playmade’s latest offering takes matcha – the revered green tea powder deeply rooted in Japanese culture – and spins it into a selection of drinks that reflect modern palates. Think earthiness balanced with creamy textures, playful fruit infusions, and that signature Playmade surprise in every cup. The result is a lineup that respects the essence of matcha while pushing it to new creative heights.
They’ve even gone a step further by introducing a limited-time-only Matcha Boba, an exciting new pearl option that complements the tea’s profile with a subtle bitterness and chewy satisfaction. For anyone who has ever found matcha to be too strong, too grassy, or too one-note, this series might be the reintroduction they didn’t know they needed.
Why Matcha?
Matcha has been having its moment globally, and rightly so. It’s packed with antioxidants, delivers a smoother caffeine kick compared to coffee, and its vibrant colour alone can elevate even the simplest drinks. But not all matcha drinks are created equal. Some places tend to mask the natural flavour with too much sugar, while others struggle to find the right pairing that doesn’t overpower it.
Playmade seems to have struck the balance perfectly. Whether you’re a seasoned matcha enthusiast or just matcha-curious, this series promises an adventure in every sip. From creamy, milk-forward drinks to fresh fruit fusions and layered flavours that build gradually on the palate, the Matcha Series is designed to appeal across different taste preferences.
What’s in the Series?
Although they’ve kept a bit of mystery around the full lineup, early reviews and store sneak peeks suggest that there’s a matcha drink for every type of tea drinker:
-
Classic Matcha Milk Tea – Smooth, rich and authentically earthy. A traditional choice that highlights the quality of the matcha itself.
-
Fruity Matcha Blends – Expect refreshing flavours like citrus or berry that cut through the creaminess and give a zesty contrast to the tea.
-
Matcha Latte with Matcha Boba – The signature drink of the season, showcasing their exclusive time-limited Matcha Boba pearls.
These drinks are not just pleasing to the tastebuds but are also visually striking. Think luscious layers of green, white, and hints of pink or orange from fruit infusions, making them just as social-media-worthy as they are flavourful.
What Makes It Worth a Visit?
Beyond the drinks themselves, there’s a unique joy in experiencing something fresh and thoughtfully crafted. Playmade has made a name for themselves by being experimental without being gimmicky. When they launch a new series, it’s usually well-researched, well-crafted, and offers an authentic experience rather than something overly commercialised.
The Matcha Boba, available only for a limited time, adds to that urgency. It’s these kinds of time-sensitive offers that make trying new releases more exciting. If you’re someone who enjoys being among the first to experience limited-edition menu items, this launch will feel like a seasonal treat.
Moreover, Singapore’s bubble tea scene has matured in recent years. With countless brands popping up, only a few manage to maintain consistent quality and creativity — and Playmade is certainly one of them. Their drinks tend to highlight craftsmanship, and every visit feels a little more personal than most large-scale bubble tea chains.
A Mid-Year Refresh
With the year halfway through, it’s the perfect moment for something new. The weather is warmer, and that familiar afternoon heat calls for a refreshing drink. Whether you’re planning a meet-up with friends, looking for a mid-day pick-me-up between meetings, or simply on your usual bubble tea run, this Matcha Series is a solid reason to veer off your routine.
Don’t underestimate how much of a small joy it is to sip something that surprises your tastebuds – something that combines familiarity (matcha) with a twist (Playmade’s creativity). There’s always something comforting about a drink that reminds you of what you love but offers it in a completely new form.
Where to Find It?
The Matcha Series is available at all Playmade outlets islandwide. They’ve got locations in major shopping malls and popular hangout spots, so whether you’re in town, in the heartlands, or stopping by a transport hub, you’ll likely find a Playmade nearby.
If you’re someone who follows tea trends closely or just likes collecting limited-edition boba flavours, then don’t miss out on the Matcha Boba. These pearls are only available for a limited time and could be rotated out without much notice.
Summary
This isn’t just another flavour release – it’s a celebration of matcha, done the Playmade way. With the introduction of their new Matcha Series, they’re inviting tea lovers, boba addicts, and matcha fans alike to explore a fresh take on a timeless classic. Expect layered flavours, well-balanced textures, and that signature Playmade twist in every cup.
Whether it’s your first time trying matcha or you’re a long-time fan, this launch offers the perfect opportunity to dive in. And since the Matcha Boba won’t be around forever, now’s the best time to try it.
So go ahead — switch up your regular bubble tea order and give this one a go. You just might discover your new favourite drink.
