100–150 ml of cold coconut water.
Ice to taste.

Step by Step: Matcha Coconut Cloud
Sift the matcha. Sift 1–2 g of ceremonial matcha to avoid lumps. This ensures a silky and uniform finish.
Create the matcha cloud. In a glass, add the ceremonial matcha along with the coconut milk. Whisk with an electric whisk until a thick and light foam forms, like a cloud.
Prepare the base. In another glass, pour cold coconut water with ice.
Assemble the drink. Carefully pour the frothy matcha cloud over the coconut water base.
Enjoy. Gently stir with a straw and savor your Matcha Coconut Cloud.
RICCO Variations and Tips
Sweeter and creamier: Add agave syrup, honey, or extra coconut cream to the cloud.
Low-calorie: Use light coconut drink and natural calorie-free sweetener.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Which matcha should I use? For Matcha Coconut Cloud, we recommend ceremonial or high-quality matcha for a smooth, non-bitter taste.
Can I use canned coconut milk? Yes: canned coconut milk will give a richer and creamier texture. Dilute with a little water if it's too thick.
