Why You’ll Love This Recipe

Okay, friend, let’s talk about Matcha Cold Foam—because once you try it, you’ll never want to sip your matcha (or coffee, or chai) without it again! It’s sweet, thick, and oh-so-delicious, and the best part? It comes together in just a few minutes with only four simple ingredients. This dairy-free version is my go-to because it’s light yet creamy, but if you prefer, you can totally make it with regular dairy too. Either way, it’s the easiest way to take your morning matcha to the next level—because who doesn’t love a little extra frothy goodness?

And if you’re into seasonal flavors (because, same), you have to try my Pumpkin Cold Foam too! It’s got all the cozy fall vibes and pairs perfectly with everything from cold brew to chai. But back to this matcha cold foam—it’s not just for matcha lattes! I love adding it to iced coffee or even chai for a fun twist. Trust me, once you whip this up at home, you’ll wonder why you ever paid extra for it at the coffee shop!

Ingredients And Substitutions

These are the main ingredients and substitutions for Matcha Cold Foam. Scroll down to the recipe card for a full list of ingredients and instructions.

To keep this recipe dairy free I used Country Crock plant cream, but if you aren’t dairy free you can use heavy cream.

To sweeten the foam up, add in a touch of maple syrup but you can also use agave or even honey if you don’t mind the taste.

Vanilla extract adds a lovely flavor, but it’s optional.

And then of course, make sure to use a ceremonial grade matcha powder. I like the one from Pique Tea, Art of Tea, or Jade Leaf.

Serve this Matcha Cold Foam on top of a Matcha Latte, Cold Brew, Latte or Chai.

Since this is a single serve version, there won’t be any leftovers to store. However, you can triple the recipe and store it in an airtight container and just throw it on top of your beverage in the morning.
