Strawberry Cloud Matcha

Strawberry Cloud Matcha

A refreshing iced matcha drink topped with sweet strawberry cold foam. Perfect for warm summer days and game nights alike.

What You'll Need

Matcha Layer

  • 1 tsp Matcha
  • 2 oz warm water
  • Ice
  • 6 oz milk of choice

Strawberry Cloud Foam

  • 2 oz heavy cream
  • 1 oz milk
  • 1 tbsp strawberry syrup

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Matcha

Add matcha and warm water to a bowl, shaker, or milk frother. Mix until smooth. You can batch prepare several servings if you're making this for a whole table, and a blender works really well for that!

Step 2: Build the Drink

Add your warm matcha to the drinking vessel of your choice. This is a great time to sweeten it if you wish. Top with a generous scoop of ice. Then pour in your milk, slowly if you want to keep a nice gradient.

Step 3: Create the Strawberry Cloud

Combine cream, milk, and strawberry syrup.
Froth until thick but still pourable. If you're making a larger batch for a group, you can use a bigger whisk, or even an electric stand mixer, for an easier time.

Notes from the Black Lotus Tea Kitchen

I recently set up a Matcha Bar at a local event called Symphony at Sunset, and this one was a big hit! The combination of earthy matcha and sweet strawberry foam creates a refreshing summer drink that's easy to make at home. I may have made and drank a couple for myself during the time there...
