Salted Sesame Matcha Drink
Matcha Meets Salted Sesame
This Salted Sesame Matcha Cocktail brings an unexpected combination into one glass. Nutty salted sesame meets rum, coconut water, fresh lime and a fluffy Matcha layer on top. The look is deliberately clean: a pale base, vibrant green Matcha and crisp coconut chips for the final touch.
Why You’ll Love This Sesame Matcha Cocktail
Sesame and Matcha both bring delicate nutty and slightly bitter notes, making them a surprisingly natural pairing. Salted sesame cordial adds depth and a subtle savory edge, coconut water keeps the base fresh, and lime brings a bright citrus accent. Rum ties everything together before the fluffy Matcha layer adds that unmistakable KISSA finish.
Tips for the Perfect White-and-Green Layer
Shake the rum, salted sesame cordial, coconut water and lime juice hard with ice until well chilled. Strain the mixture over fresh ice in a highball glass. Whisk the Matcha separately until smooth and fluffy, then slowly pour it over the ice at the very end. This keeps the pale base and vibrant green Matcha layer beautifully defined.
