Coco Matcha Cap

A layered drink with depth and texture—
fresh matcha, creamy coconut, and a soft foam cap on top.

Light, smooth, and quietly indulgent.


Ingredients

Matcha Base

  • 2g matcha powder (ceremonial or high-grade)

  • 30ml warm water (70–80°C)

Coconut Layer

  • 120ml coconut milk (unsweetened or lightly sweetened)

  • 60ml milk (optional, for a lighter texture)

  • Ice cubes

Cream Cap (Foam)

  • 50ml heavy cream or coconut cream

  • 10–15ml syrup (simple syrup or coconut syrup)

  • Pinch of sea salt (optional, for depth)

Method

  1. Prepare the matcha
    Sift matcha into a bowl.
    Add warm water and whisk until smooth and slightly frothy.

  2. Make the coconut base
    In a glass, add ice.
    Pour in coconut milk (and milk if using).

  3. Build the layers
    Slowly pour the matcha over the coconut milk to create a soft gradient.

  4. Prepare the cream cap
    Lightly whip cream with syrup (and a pinch of salt if desired)
    until it becomes thick but still pourable.

  5. Finish
    Gently spoon or pour the cream cap over the drink.

Notes

  • The goal is balance—not too sweet, not too heavy.

  • The cream cap should sit softly on top, not sink.

  • When drinking, let the layers mix naturally.

Taste profile:
Creamy. Nutty. Slightly ocean-like.
With that clean matcha finish coming through.
