  2. Cold milk about 180 ml, poured slowly so it sits on the puree
  3. Ice fills the cup before anything is poured
  4. Whisked matcha poured over the back of a spoon so it floats

What is strawberry matcha?

Matcha poured over strawberry milk or strawberry puree and ice, in pink, white and green layers: sweet and fruity against the grassy tea. A typical strawberry matcha, drawn from Darwin cafes' menus and reviews, is built from the top down with whisked matcha (poured over the back of a spoon so it floats), ice (fills the cup before anything is poured), cold milk (about 180 ml, poured slowly so it sits on the puree) and strawberry puree (crushed strawberries cooked down with sugar, 2 to 3 spoonfuls). Each cafe makes its own version, so this is a typical build, not one cafe's recipe. In all our data to 14 Nov 2026, The Froth has seen it at 7 Darwin cafes across 8 suburbs, in Google reviews and menus. The 10 in "Where to get one" are the cafes with it on their current menu.

Is strawberry matcha getting more popular in Darwin?

It is early days. The Froth rates strawberry matcha as Emerging as of 14 Nov 2026: the earliest review we have is from 30 Sep 2026, less than four months ago. In the 90 days to 14 Nov 2026, 14% of the Darwin cafes we see well (a current menu in that time) had it.

Where in Australia is strawberry matcha biggest?

It is on a bigger share of Canberra cafes: 18% against Darwin's 14%, over the last 90 days.

When did strawberry matcha first show up in Darwin cafes?

The earliest Darwin customer review about strawberry matcha that The Froth has is from 30 Sep 2026. 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.

How does The Froth count this?

A cafe counts for strawberry 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 (14 Nov 2026), not today. Searches are monthly search demand in Darwin with all of a trend's names added up. The full method is on our "How we track cafe trends" page.
