This is the Pistachio Cloud Jasmine Coconut ($8.90; less ice, 70% sugar) from SoTea, featuring a jasmine green tea base topped with coconut water and pistachio foam.
The beverage presented with a layered structure, with a translucent light golden base topped by an opaque pale green foam and finished with crushed pistachios. The layers were visually distinct prior to mixing. Aroma was led by pronounced jasmine florals, with a secondary nutty note from the pistachio.
On tasting, the initial contact delivered a fragrant jasmine profile, with the floral notes sitting prominently above a light green tea base. Sweetness registered early, supported by the coconut water, which contributed body without dominating the profile. Through the mid-palate, the sweetness became more apparent, while the green tea base introduced mild toasted notes that balanced the florals. The pistachio foam began to integrate, initially contributing creaminess rather than flavour intensity. Towards the finish, the pistachio became more defined, developing into a light savoury nuttiness. The crushed pistachios added intermittent crunch, creating textural contrast against the otherwise smooth liquid. The aftertaste carried lingering jasmine florals with residual sweetness and a soft nutty note, tapering gradually. Mouthfeel transitioned from light and fluid at the front to moderately creamy as the pistachio foam dispersed.
Overall, a floral jasmine-forward tea with creamy pistachio body, light crunch, and a slightly elevated sweetness.
