Tropical Ocean (Blue Coconut) Matcha

This blue matcha is the perfect summer sip. The combination of coconut water, coconut milk, and the tropical ocean color will make you feel like you're sitting on a beach!

Ingredients

  • 3 tbsp water, divided
  • Few pinches of blue spirulina
  • 1 c coconut milk beverage
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup, optional
  • 0.5 tsp matcha powder
  • 1 c coconut water
  • Ice for serving
  • Coconut whip, optional

Instructions

  1. In a measuring cup with a pour spout (or other mixing vessel), combine 1 tbsp water with a few pinches of blue spirulina. Use a wand-style milk frother to dissolve the spirulina. Add the coconut milk and maple syrup (if using) and stir to mix.
  2. In a separate measuring cup (or other mixing vessel), combine 2 tbsp water with the matcha powder. Use a milk frother or matcha whisk to thoroughly mix the matcha into the water, making sure there are no clumps. Add the coconut water and stir to mix.
  3. Fill a tall serving glass with ice. Pour the blue coconut milk into the serving glass first, then add the coconut water matcha on top. If desired, garnish with coconut whip.
