I never thought one of contributions I would make with Encha is revolutionizing the traditional cream-laden and sugar-laden iced milk tea. When I tried reversing the order of Encha Organic Matcha and coconut milk in the summer of 2015, I was mesmerized by the evanescent beauty of green Encha dancing into the creamy white coconut milk. Every second after you poured in Encha, the imagery changes. I don't need to say more about how much healthier it is than traditional iced tea or commercial boba tea. And it is so easy to make! 

Ingredients (amount for one 12-oz serving):

• 1/2 tsp or 1 bamboo scoop of Encha Organic Matcha (vegan latte-grade Encha is the best choice in taste pairing. You could use ceremonial-grade Encha which would be more delicate; or, culinary-grade Encha if you add sweetener while whisking Encha.) 
• 5 oz (2/3 cup) coconut milk
• 3 oz water at 160°F
• 1 cup of ice cubes 

Instructions: 

1. Fill the glass with ice to 2/3 full.
2. Pour in the cold coconut milk. 
3. Whisk or froth Encha with hot water until dissolved and frothy, about 15s.  
4. Pour Encha tea to the glass slowly.
5. Enjoy the mesmerizing CocoEncha dance effect.
