Matcha Coconut Cloud

The best part? It’s easy to make, feels super fancy, and tastes like a tropical matcha cloud in a glass!

Let’s do this!

What You’ll Need

For the Matcha Base:

• 1 tsp matcha powder
• ¼ cup hot water (not boiling!)
• ½ cup coconut milk (full-fat for creaminess!)
• ½ cup sparkling water (for a light, airy texture)
• 1 tsp honey or maple syrup (optional, for sweetness)

For the Coconut Cloud Foam:

• ¼ cup coconut cream (chilled!)
• 1 tbsp sweetened condensed milk (or coconut condensed milk for dairy-free option)
• ¼ tsp vanilla extract

For Garnish (Optional but Fancy!):

• Dusting of matcha powder
• Drizzle of honey

Pro Tips

1. Use full-fat coconut milk! It makes the drink extra creamy and dreamy.
2. Chill the coconut cream. This helps it whip up into a thick, fluffy foam.
3. Whisk the matcha well! A bamboo whisk or electric frother makes it smooth and clump-free.
4. Want extra bubbles? Use coconut sparkling water instead of regular.
5. Make it even fancier! Top with toasted coconut flakes for a tropical twist.

Tools You’ll Need

• Whisk (matcha whisk or electric frother)
• Small mixing bowl
• Hand mixer (for coconut foam)
• Clear glass for serving

Substitutions & Variations

• Dairy-free option: Use coconut condensed milk or maple syrup instead of regular condensed milk.
• Sweeter version: Add a splash of vanilla syrup or agave.
• Stronger matcha flavor: Use 1½ tsp matcha instead of 1 tsp.
• Iced latte version: Skip the sparkling water and pour over ice instead!

Instructions

Step 1: Make the Matcha Base

1. Whisk the matcha.

In a small bowl, whisk matcha powder and hot water until smooth and frothy.

2. Mix with coconut milk.

Pour the whisked matcha into a glass and add coconut milk and honey (if using). Stir well.

3. Add the fizz.

Pour in sparkling water slowly to keep it light and bubbly.

Step 2: Make the Coconut Cloud Foam

4. Whip the coconut cream.

In a small mixing bowl, use a hand mixer to whip chilled coconut cream, condensed milk, and vanilla extract until thick and fluffy.

Step 3: Assemble & Serve

5. Spoon the coconut foam on top.

Carefully layer the whipped coconut mixture over the matcha base.

6. Garnish & enjoy!

Dust with matcha powder and drizzle honey on top. Serve immediately!

Leftovers & Storage

• Best enjoyed fresh!
• If making ahead, store the coconut foam separately in the fridge and whisk before serving.
