Equipment

  • Tall Glass
  • Small mixing bowl
  • Whisk
  • Straw
  • Jug

Ingredients
  

  • 1 ½ teaspoon of green tea powder
  • ¼ teaspoon of ginger powder
  • 1 cup of pineapple juice
  • 1 ½ cups of coconut milk
  • 2 tablespoons of simple syrup (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Pour the green tea powder, ginger powder, and a third of the pineapple juice into a mixing bowl and whisk to dissolve the powder
  • Pour the coconut milk into the jug.
  • Stir in the remaining pineapple juice and the ginger and green tea mixture into the milk. At this stage, you can include 2 tablespoons of simple syrup if you want.
  • Pour the mixture over a glass filled with ice.
  • Put in a straw and enjoy.

Notes

  • If you want your drink to be stronger and sweeter, you can use less coconut milk, whereas to make it mild-tasting and creamy, use more coconut milk.
  • If you’re a lover of more sweet and sour types of drinks, which happen to be my personal preference, you can add a ½ ounce of lime juice. This will make the pineapple matcha taste amazing!
  • As you prepare the drink, you can use different plant-based milk like almond or oat milk. However, keep in mind that the finish taste will be different. If you want to make your drink creamier, use dairy milk.
  • The drink is called Pineapple Matcha but this does not restrict you from using other fruit juices. Make it to your taste next time and use orange or cranberry juice. You might end up loving your customized alternative even more.
