When did pandan first show up in Sydney cafes?

The earliest Sydney cafe post or customer review about pandan that The Froth has is from 15 Feb 2022. 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 a pandan latte?

A typical pandan latte, drawn from Sydney cafes' own posts, is built from the top down with pandan leaf (a knotted leaf, mostly for the smell), espresso (a double shot poured on last), ice (fills the cup before anything is poured) and pandan milk (milk with pandan syrup, often with coconut, about 200 ml). 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 pandan 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 (13 Nov 2026), not today. Searches are monthly search demand in Sydney 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.
