Part of the Matcha trend
It is on a small share of cafes (13% in the last 90 days) and holding steady, and searches in Brisbane are down 50% (Aug to Oct 2026 against Aug to Oct 2025).
Fewer than 5 Brisbane cafes have it, or the first cafe post or review we have is under 120 days old, or creators are posting it before any cafe has it. It also covers anything on a small share of cafes that is holding steady.
The stages run Emerging, Rising, Peaking, Mainstream, Fading. A trend can skip a stage or move back.

Of the cafes in Brisbane that posted anything that month, how many posted strawberry matcha, per 1,000 of them.
It is a share, not a count, so it does not grow just because we follow more cafes. It only grows when more of the cafes we follow take it up.
The month in progress shows here once it is complete, so a part month never reads as a drop. A month with too few cafes posting is left out.

Strawberry matcha is on 108 Brisbane cafe menus and has been posted by cafes in 120 Brisbane suburbs.
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 Brisbane cafes' own posts, 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 146 Brisbane cafes across 120 suburbs, in posts, customer reviews and menus. The 141 in "Where to get one" are the cafes with it on their current menu or in a cafe or creator post.
It is on 108 Brisbane cafe menus right now, including Cuppa Coffee in Meadowbrook, Cotti Coffee(Pinelands plaza) in Sunnybank Hills, Tracks Coffee in Nundah and Espresso Lane in Stafford. 33 more cafes have posted it, though it is not on their current menu. The "Where to get one" list on this page has every one, with the price where the menu gives one, links to the menu or post, and directions. Menus change, so check with the cafe before you go.
The average is $9.53, from 86 Brisbane cafe menus as of 15 Nov 2026. Most charge between $7.50 and $11; the lowest we have seen is $6 and the highest $12.50.
It is on a bigger share of Canberra cafes: 15% against Brisbane's 13%, over the last 90 days.
It is early days. The Froth rates strawberry matcha as Emerging as of 14 Nov 2026: it is on a small share of cafes (13% in the last 90 days) and holding steady, and searches in Brisbane are down 50% (Aug to Oct 2026 against Aug to Oct 2025). In the 90 days to 14 Nov 2026, 13% of the Brisbane cafes we see well (an Instagram post or a current menu in that time) had it. Among the 1,088 cafes we have followed through both periods, 13 of the same cafes had it, against 7 in the 90 days before. Brisbane searches for it were down 50% in Aug to Oct 2026 compared with Aug to Oct 2025.
There were 590 searches for strawberry matcha in Brisbane in Oct 2026, with all its names added up. Across the 23 months we have, from Dec 2024 to Oct 2026, it ranged from 480 searches (May 2026) to 1,600 (May 2025). These are monthly estimates of search demand in Brisbane.
The earliest Brisbane cafe post or customer review about strawberry matcha that The Froth has is from 9 Jul 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.
A cafe counts for strawberry matcha from the first public post or customer review we found about it, the cafe's own post or a customer's, and while it is on the cafe's current menu. Shares are of the cafes we see well: those with an Instagram post or 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 cafe posts or reviews (14 Nov 2026), not today. Searches are monthly search demand in Brisbane with all of a trend's names added up. Captions stay private; we only link to public posts. The full method is on our "How we track cafe trends" page.
