How to Make a Matcha Pineapple Splash
The secret to this drink is balancing the ratio of tea to fruit. Using high-quality Oi Boba ingredients ensures the matcha stays smooth (never bitter) and the pineapple shines through.
Ingredients You’ll Need:
-
15 g Oi Boba Matcha Powder (Premium grade for vibrant colour)
-
100 ml Cold Water
-
20–30 ml Oi Boba Pineapple Syrup (Adjust to your sweetness preference)
-
Ice cubes (Plenty to fill the glass)
Steps:
-
Mix the Matcha Base: In a separate small cup or bowl, combine the Oi Boba Matcha Powder with the cold water. Whisk or use a frother until fully dissolved and no clumps remain.
-
Add the Tropical Base: Pour the Oi Boba Pineapple Syrup directly into your serving glass.
-
Ice It Up: Fill your serving glass all the way to the top with ice. This is crucial—the ice acts as a barrier to keep the layers distinct!
-
The Pour: Gently pour the matcha mixture over the ice.
-
Serve: Watch the beautiful gradient form and enjoy immediately.
Pro Tips for the Perfect Sip
-
Make it Sparkle: Swap 50ml of the water for sparkling mineral water or soda water to turn this into a fizzy, extra-refreshing spritz.
-
Adjust the Strength: If you love a bold tea flavour, bump the matcha powder up to 20g.
-
Garnish Like a Pro: Add a fresh pineapple wedge on the rim or a sprig of mint to elevate the presentation.
