When did matcha first show up in Adelaide cafes?

The earliest Adelaide customer review about matcha that The Froth has is from 16 May 2024. We only see what we collect, so that is when we first saw it, not when it started: it may have been sold earlier, here or elsewhere.

What is in an iced matcha latte?

A typical iced matcha latte, drawn from Adelaide cafes' menus and reviews, is built from the top down with whisked matcha (2 to 4 g of matcha whisked with 60 ml of warm water, poured on last), ice (fills the cup before anything is poured) and cold milk (about 200 ml, often oat, lightly sweetened). Each cafe makes its own version, so this is a typical build, not one cafe's recipe.

How does The Froth count this?

A cafe counts for matcha from the first Google review we found that mentions it, and while it is on the cafe's current menu. Shares are of the cafes we see well: those with a current menu in the same 90 days, a chain counting once. A change compares the same cafes in the last 90 days with the 90 before, only among cafes we have followed through both, so newly added cafes never look like growth. The 90 days end on the latest day with new reviews or menus (13 Nov 2026), not today. Searches are monthly search demand in Adelaide with all of a trend's names added up. The full method is on our "How we track cafe trends" page.
