The new season of Starbucks promotional items featured the play of flavoured cold foam to harmonise with their beverages.

One of the three drinks on the list was the Matcha Cold Foam Iced Americano, which essentially featured Matcha powder cold blended with full-bodied milk. I liked the drink with a sip cover, for the fact that every sip of the coffee would complement with some sweet Matcha foam that would coat the upper lip when I drank it. However, it definitely lacked the caffeine kick unlike the cold brew or iced espresso drink.

Similar to the Cold Foam Iced Espresso, I reckoned that the drink should be finished quickly, lest the cold foam would eventually dissolve into the drink itself, making this less of a novelty to be enjoyed.
