Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 shots (60 ml) freshly brewed espresso or 1 cup (240 ml) strong cold brew coffee
  • Ice cubes as needed
  • 1 tablespoon matcha powder (preferably ceremonial grade)
  • 1 cup (240 ml) heavy cream or full-fat coconut cream (chilled; heavy cream recommended for best froth)
  • 2 tablespoons sweetener of choice (simple syrup or agave recommended)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
  • Edible glitter or green sprinkles (optional garnish)
  • Black sesame seeds or crushed activated charcoal powder (optional garnish)

Instructions

  1. Prepare 2 shots (60 ml) of espresso or 1 cup (240 ml) of strong cold brew coffee. Pour over ice in serving glasses to chill quickly.
  2. In a small bowl, sift 1 tablespoon of matcha powder to avoid clumps. Add 1 tablespoon of hot (around 175°F / 80°C) water and whisk vigorously until smooth and bright green, about 30 seconds.
  3. In a chilled mixing bowl, combine 1 cup (240 ml) heavy cream, 2 tablespoons sweetener, and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract. Slowly fold in the whisked matcha.
  4. Using a handheld milk frother or electric mixer, whisk on medium-high speed until soft peaks form, about 2 to 3 minutes.
  5. Carefully spoon or pour the matcha cold foam over the iced coffee base, letting it float on top.
  6. Garnish with edible glitter, green sprinkles, or black sesame seeds for a spooky touch. Serve immediately.

Notes

Chill cream and mixing bowl well for best foam texture. Whisk matcha separately with warm water to avoid clumps. Fold matcha gently into cream to keep foam airy. Stop whisking at soft peaks to avoid grainy texture. Prepare foam just before serving for freshness. Foam can be refrigerated and re-whisked before use. For dairy-free version, use full-fat coconut cream but foam will be less stiff.
