Ingredients
- 1 Cup pineapple Fresh or canned, cut into ½ inch chunks. This is about 5 canned pineapple rounds or 5.98 oz/ 186g of pineapple. You need to cut the pineapple, as larger pieces would mean you can fit less into 1 cup. If you're going to weigh the fruit, you can skip the cutting. Substitute: 1 cup of pure pineapple juice. You can also substitute this AND the ginger with pineapple ginger syrup.
- 1 Cup unsweetened coconut milk You can mix 76g/ 2.68oz of coconut cream with 152g/5.36 oz of water. Substitute: 1 cup of shop bought coconut milk but it may be less creamy. Alternatively, use a milk of your choice.
- 2 teaspoon matcha powder Do not substitute with green tea as the flavor and color are different.
- ⅛-½ teaspoon ginger powder Different ginger powders have different levels of spice, depending on how old they are etc, so start with the smallest amount (⅛ teaspoon) and work your way up if you find you can't taste the ginger. Substitute: freshly squeezed ginger juice, to taste
- ice cubes, optional You can freeze your pineapple before blending if you want an icy drink but don't have any ice cubes on hand.
- sugar, optional and to taste Only necessary if your pineapple isn't ripe (or you have a very sweet tooth.) If using tinned pineapple, you can use the syrup from the tin to sweeten your drink.
Instructions
- Mix the matcha powder, ginger powder and homemade coconut milk.
- Add the mixture from Step 1 into the blender, along with the pineapple chunks.
- Blend till everything is well-mixed and no lumps remain (except for the pineapple pulp.)Optional: sieve out the pineapple pulp. Sweeten to taste if necessary and add ice cubes if you want a cold drink.
If using pineapple juice
- Add the juice, matcha powder, ginger powder and coconut milk to an airtight container and shake till all combine.
Notes
- Using pineapple ginger syrup
- Starbucks drinks are usually made with syrups. You can use pineapple ginger syrup to substitute for the pineapple and ginger powder. Use 2 Tablespoons of the syrup for every cup of the drink you're making.
- I suggest freezing some pineapple juice cubes to add to this Starbucks-inspired pineapple matcha drink. It will prevent the drink from being diluted when the ice melts.
