A deliciously creamy Coconut Macchiato featuring a rich white chocolate coconut sauce combined with a vibrant butterfly pea-infused milk and bold Hawaiian espresso for a tropical twist on the classic coffee drink.

Ingredients

Coconut Sauce

  • 113 g white chocolate, chopped (4 oz.)
  • 110 g canned coconut milk (½ cup)
  • 2 tsp coconut extract
  • 2 tbsp granulated sugar

Coconut Macchiato

  • 2 tbsp coconut sauce
  • ¼ tsp butterfly pea powder
  • 6 oz milk of choice
  • 2 oz PapaNicholas Hawaiian Islands Espresso

Instructions

  1. Make the Coconut Sauce: In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the chopped white chocolate, canned coconut milk, coconut extract, and granulated sugar. Stir constantly until the white chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is smooth and well blended. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
  2. Prepare the Butterfly Pea Milk: Heat 6 oz of your milk of choice gently on the stovetop or with a milk frother until warm but not boiling. Stir in ¼ teaspoon of butterfly pea powder until fully dissolved, creating a vibrant blue tinted milk.
  3. Assemble the Macchiato: Pour 2 tablespoons of the coconut sauce into the bottom of a serving glass or cup. Carefully layer the warm butterfly pea milk over the coconut sauce.
  4. Add the Espresso: Brew 2 oz of PapaNicholas Hawaiian Islands Espresso using your preferred espresso machine. Slowly pour the espresso over the layered milk and coconut sauce, creating a beautiful layered macchiato effect.
  5. Serve and Enjoy: Serve immediately and enjoy the tropical flavors and stunning presentation of this Coconut Macchiato.

Notes

  • Use full-fat canned coconut milk for a richer sauce.
  • Butterfly pea powder adds natural color and subtle flavor; substitute with blue food coloring if unavailable.
  • Adjust sugar amount in the coconut sauce to taste for sweetness level.
  • For a dairy-free version, use almond, oat, or coconut milk.
  • Espresso should be freshly brewed for best flavor.
