Strawberry Matcha Latte
The Strawberry Matcha Latte combines bright, grassy notes of ceremonial grade matcha with a sweet, fruity cold foam made from strawberry syrup, heavy cream, and milk. The layered drink highlights the contrast between the earthy green tea and the smooth, creamy strawberry topping, served chilled and garnished with fresh strawberry slices for a refreshing and visually appealing beverage.

Ingredients
Matcha Latte
- 1 matcha powder ceremonial grade, rounded tsp
- 1/3 cup water hot
- 1 tsp sugar optional
- 1/4 cup milk cold
Strawberry Cold Foam
- 1/4 cup Strawberry Syrup puréed, or 4-5 ripe strawberries
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 milk
- 1 tbsp sweetener or as needed
- strawberries for garnish, sliced
Instructions
- Using the milk frother, whisk together a scoop of matcha powder and hot water until well combined and the powder is completely dissolved. If using sugar, whisk in. Add milk and blend. Set aside.
- Use the milk frother again to whip up the strawberry syrup/puree with the heavy cream, milk, and sugar until it becomes thickened and pink.
- Add ice to a glass and garnish the glass with slices of strawberries for a pretty presentation. Pour the pink sweet cream into the glass, and then carefully pour the green tea latte over the pink layer. If you want to create distinct layers, pour the matcha layer over the back of a spoon over the strawberry layer.
- Garnish with strawberries and serve up nice and cold.

Notes
- Use your preferred milk type; the recipe works with various milk alternatives.
- Substitute heavy cream with cashew cream or coconut milk for different flavors; coconut adds a noticeable coconut taste.
- Choose your sweetener such as maple syrup, honey, or monk fruit according to preference.
- Make the matcha latte and strawberry syrup a day ahead and store in airtight containers in the fridge.
- Whip the strawberry cold foam fresh just before serving to maintain its texture and appearance.
