A tall clear glass filled with two distinct layers of drink: the bottom layer is a smooth, bright green liquid with tiny dark specks, making up about three-quarters of the glass, while the top layer is a light purple foam, slightly frothy and creamy, sitting on the green base. The glass is placed on two stacked white marble coasters, which rest on a white marbled surface. The background is softly blurred with some green plants visible in soft focus, adding a fresh and natural feel. photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons heavy cream
  • 1 tablespoon whole milk
  • 1 tablespoon lavender syrup
  • 1-2 drops purple food coloring (optional)
  • 1 ½ cups oat milk
  • 3 tablespoons vanilla syrup
  • 2 teaspoons pure matcha powder

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Make the lavender cold foam by combining the heavy cream, whole milk, lavender syrup, and food coloring (if using) in a small jar or container. Froth with a milk frother for 10-20 seconds until well combined and slightly thickened. Set aside.
  2. Step 2: In a large container, mix the oat milk, vanilla syrup, and matcha powder. Use a milk frother or a matcha whisk to stir for 1-2 minutes until the matcha is fully dissolved and the mixture is smooth.
  3. Step 3: Fill a tall glass with ice and pour the matcha oat milk over it. Top gently with the lavender cold foam. Serve immediately and enjoy.

Tips & Variations

  • Use homemade lavender syrup or adjust sweetness to your preference for a lighter or stronger floral note.
  • Try using almond or soy milk if you prefer a different plant-based milk.
  • For a vegan version, substitute heavy cream and whole milk with coconut cream or another non-dairy cream alternative.
  • If you don’t have a milk frother, vigorously shaking the cold foam ingredients in a sealed jar can create a similar froth.

Storage

It’s best to enjoy this drink fresh for the best texture and flavor. You can prepare the matcha oat milk and lavender foam separately and store each in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Stir the matcha again before serving and froth the cream mixture fresh if possible.

How to Serve

A tall clear glass is filled with a smooth, bright green iced matcha drink that shows small floating ice cubes near the top. Light purple liquid is being poured into the glass, creating a swirl on the surface. The glass is set on two round white marble coasters on a white marbled textured surface. In the out-of-focus background, there are blurred green plants and a small glass jar with honey. photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7
