Light, fluffy, creamy, and naturally energizing — this Matcha Coconut Cloud is a dreamy layered drink made with whipped coconut milk and smooth matcha. It’s refreshing, vegan-friendly, and Instagram-viral thanks to its cloud-like top and vibrant green swirl.

⭐ Ingredients

For the Coconut Cloud Layer

½ cup cold coconut cream (or thick coconut milk)
1–2 tbsp maple syrup or sugar-free sweetener
½ tsp vanilla extract (optional)

For the Matcha Layer

1 tsp ceremonial or culinary matcha
2–3 tbsp hot water
1 tsp honey or sweetener (optional)

For Serving

1 cup cold milk (almond, coconut, or dairy)
Ice cubes
Toasted coconut flakes (optional garnish)

⭐ Instructions

1. Make the Coconut Cloud

In a bowl, whip coconut cream + sweetener + vanilla using a whisk or frother until thick and fluffy.
(Should look like soft coconut whipped cream.)

2. Prepare the Matcha

Add matcha powder + hot water to a bowl.
Whisk until smooth and frothy.
Add a touch of honey if you want it sweet.

3. Build the Drink

Fill a glass with ice → pour in your milk.
Gently spoon the coconut cloud on top.

4. Finish with Matcha

Pour the matcha over the coconut cloud slowly so it drips through like a marble effect.

Top with toasted coconut if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy the beautiful layers!

⭐ Q/A Section (for engagement)

Q1: Can I make this sugar-free?

Yes! Use monk fruit, stevia, or allulose — the drink stays equally creamy and delicious.

Q2: Why isn’t my coconut cloud whipping?

Because the coconut cream wasn’t cold enough.
Chill overnight for best results.

Q3: Which milk works best?

Almond milk or coconut milk gives the tastiest flavor, but dairy milk works too.

Q4: Can I make it hot instead of iced?

Yes! Warm the milk and skip the ice.
Just keep the cloud cold and spoon on top.

Q5: Do I need ceremonial matcha?

It’s preferred for best color + smoothness, but good-quality culinary matcha works fine.

Q6: Is this vegan?

Yes — as long as you use plant-based milk and vegan sweetener.
