Make this bright, layered beverage combining earthy matcha with sweet pineapple juice over ice for a refreshing, energizing drink.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 teaspoon ceremonial grade matcha powder
  • 2 tablespoons hot (not boiling) water
  • 1/2 cup pineapple juice, chilled
  • 1/2 cup coconut water, chilled
  • 1 teaspoon simple syrup or honey (optional)
  • 1 cup ice cubes

Instructions

  1. Sift the matcha powder into a small bowl or matcha whisking bowl.
  2. Add the hot water to the matcha. Whisk vigorously in a ‘W’ or ‘M’ motion until the matcha is completely dissolved and frothy, with no clumps remaining.
  3. In a tall glass, combine the chilled pineapple juice, chilled coconut water, and simple syrup, if using. Stir briefly.
  4. Fill the glass completely with ice cubes.
  5. Slowly pour the prepared matcha mixture over the back of a spoon held just above the liquid surface to create a distinct green layer on top of the yellow/clear base.
  6. Serve immediately with a straw.

Notes

  • Use cold liquids for the base mixture to prevent the ice from melting too quickly.
  • For a sweeter drink, increase the simple syrup to 2 teaspoons.
  • If you do not have a whisk, you can shake the matcha and water vigorously in a sealed jar until smooth.
