Editor's Note

Long before matcha became a mainstream menu staple at coffee chains, I remember discovering it years ago while shopping at Whole Foods. From its earthy flavor to the wellness benefits associated with green tea, matcha quickly became one of my favorite drinks. So when Dunkin' introduced the Barbie-inspired Strawberry Cloud Matcha, I knew I had to give it a try.

First Impressions

As someone who genuinely loves matcha, I approached this launch with excitement—and admittedly a little skepticism.

Would the strawberry overpower the matcha?

Would it be too sweet?

Fortunately, the answer to both was no.

The balance between the earthy matcha and the creamy strawberry cold foam was surprisingly perfect. The combination creates a refreshing contrast that feels indulgent without overwhelming the drink itself.

Adding the subtle vanilla notes into the mix elevates everything even further, turning what could have been just another novelty beverage into something genuinely enjoyable.

Why This Drink Stands Out

Many seasonal drinks rely on appearance alone.

The Strawberry Cloud Matcha delivers more than just a pretty pink aesthetic.

✔ The Matcha Still Shines

One of the biggest wins here is that the matcha flavor remains present. Fans of traditional matcha won't feel like it's buried beneath layers of sweetness.

✔ The Strawberry Cold Foam Is Exceptional

The Barbie Pink Strawberry Cold Foam is easily the star of the show.

Creamy, smooth, and bursting with sweet strawberry flavor, it pairs beautifully with the grassy notes of matcha.

PPM Rating for the Cold Foam: 5/5.

✔ Vanilla Brings Everything Together

The hint of vanilla creates a dessert-like finish without making the drink feel heavy.

✔ Refreshing Yet Comforting

Some drinks feel like dessert.

Others feel healthy.

This somehow manages to be both.

PPM Takeaway

The Strawberry Cloud Matcha feels like summer in a cup.

• Sweet without being overpowering.
• Colorful without sacrificing flavor.

And while the Barbie collaboration brings plenty of visual appeal, the quality of the drink itself is what truly makes this menu item stand out.

For longtime matcha lovers—and even newcomers looking to try something different—this drink deserves a spot on your summer must-try list.
