Description

This refreshing Iced Banana Bread Matcha is a delightful fusion drink combining the earthy flavors of pure matcha with the sweet, comforting notes of banana bread syrup. Topped with a luscious cold foam made from heavy cream and milk, this beverage offers a creamy, frothy texture perfectly balanced with brown sugar syrup and served over ice for a cooling treat.

Ingredients

Cold Foam

  • 3 tbsp heavy cream
  • 1 ½ tbsp banana bread syrup
  • 1 tbsp whole milk

Matcha Mixture

  • 3 tbsp hot water
  • 1 ½ tsp pure matcha powder (sifted)

Drink Base

  • 1 cup milk of choice (2% milk recommended)
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar syrup
  • Ice
  • Crushed maple sugar (optional, for topping)

Instructions

  1. Make the cold foam: In a small glass or jar, combine the heavy cream, banana bread syrup, and whole milk. Use a milk frother to froth the mixture for 20-30 seconds until it becomes light and foamy. Set aside for topping later.
  2. Prepare the matcha: Heat 3 tablespoons of water in a microwave-safe jar or glass until boiling, about 30-45 seconds. Sift the matcha powder into the hot water to prevent clumps, then whisk thoroughly until the matcha is smooth and slightly frothy. Set aside.
  3. Assemble the drink: Fill a tall glass with ice, then pour in the cup of milk followed by the brown sugar syrup. Stir well to combine the sweetness evenly throughout the milk. Add the prepared matcha mixture and stir again to blend all the flavors.
  4. Finish and serve: Gently spoon the cold foam over the top of the iced matcha drink. Optionally, sprinkle crushed maple sugar on top for an added sweet crunch. Serve immediately and enjoy your iced banana bread matcha.

Notes

  • Banana bread syrup may be homemade or store-bought; adjust the amount based on desired sweetness.
  • Use whole milk or milk of choice for creaminess; non-dairy alternatives like oat or almond milk can be used but may alter texture.
  • For a stronger matcha flavor, increase matcha powder slightly but be mindful of bitterness.
  • Use a high-quality pure matcha powder for best flavor without clumping.
  • Cold foam can be made ahead and stored briefly but will froth best when freshly made.
  • Crushed maple sugar topping is optional but adds a delightful texture and maple sweetness.
