Why Try Our Matcha in Miami Beach

At ZEN Cakes Café, we combine quality matcha, creative drinks, and handcrafted desserts in one welcoming South Beach café.
If you're searching for the best matcha Miami Beach has to offer or looking for your personal pick for the best matcha in Miami, we're here to make your next matcha break a delicious one.
Ceremonial-Grade Matcha
We use ceremonial-grade matcha, a premium style of finely ground green tea traditionally intended for drinking.
Ceremonial-grade matcha is generally made from carefully selected young, shade-grown tea leaves. The leaves are processed and ground into a fine powder, often using traditional stone mills, creating a smooth texture and delicate flavor.
Compared with stronger culinary matcha, ceremonial-grade varieties are typically less bitter, with a naturally mellow, slightly sweet character.
It's a wonderful foundation for both classic lattes and more creative matcha drinks.
Matcha Drinks and Matcha Cakes in One Café
Why choose between your favorite drink and dessert when you can enjoy both?
Unlike a typical matcha stop, ZEN Cakes Café brings together specialty matcha drinks and beautiful, handcrafted cakes.
Order an iced matcha latte, then pair it with a slice of creamy Matcha–Strawberry or refreshing Matcha–Mango cake.
Our cakes are made with plant-based ingredients, without dairy, gluten, eggs, or refined sugar. Whole cakes are also handcrafted to order, making it easy to celebrate birthdays and special occasions with a dessert everyone can enjoy together.
For anyone exploring matcha café Miami options, it's a little something extra worth discovering.
