Main Ingredients
- 6 oz pineapple juice
- 1/4 cup hot water
- 1/2 tsp matcha tea powder
- 1 tsp ginger juice
- 1/2 cup coconut milk
- Ice as needed
- Prepare matcha mixture: In a measuring cup, combine 1/2 teaspoon of matcha tea powder with 1/4 cup of hot water. Use a handheld frother to whisk the matcha until it’s fully dissolved and a frothy layer forms on top.
- Assemble the drink: Fill your serving cup with ice cubes to your preference. Pour 6 ounces of pineapple juice over the ice.
- Add matcha and flavors: Pour the prepared matcha tea mixture over the pineapple juice. Then add 1 teaspoon of fresh ginger juice for a spicy kick.
- Finish with coconut milk: Top the drink with 1/2 cup of creamy coconut milk. Stir well to combine all flavors evenly.
- Serve and enjoy: Taste and adjust sweetness if desired as per the notes, then serve immediately for a refreshing iced beverage.
Notes
- Adjust sweetness by adding sweetener like simple syrup, honey, or agave if desired, as the pineapple juice may vary in sweetness.
- Use freshly grated ginger to extract ginger juice for best flavor, or bottled ginger juice can be a substitute.
- For a vegan version, ensure the coconut milk is plant-based and contains no dairy additives.
- Use high-quality ceremonial grade matcha powder for the best taste and smooth texture.
