So, here’s something that’s got Aussie matcha lovers buzzing — and no, it’s not a TikTok prank this time. McDonald’s Australia, or as we love to call it, Macca’s, has just launched a real matcha range, and yes, that includes the wildly talked-about Iced Strawberry Matcha Latte. It’s only available at select locations in New South Wales and Victoria for now, but that hasn’t stopped the internet from losing its mind.
Let’s rewind a bit. Remember last year when a viral video made it seem like Macca’s had launched a Strawberry Matcha drink, and people were racing to their local stores only to discover it was completely fake? Yeah, that one stung. But this time, it’s legit. Social media users, especially food content creators like Nina from Sydney, have already spotted and taste-tested the new drinks — and their reactions are everything.
Currently, Macca’s is offering three matcha drinks: the classic Matcha Latte, an Iced Matcha Latte, and the crowd favorite — Iced Strawberry Matcha Latte. Prices range from about $5.25 to $6.60, which, honestly, is not bad for a trendy drink from your local fast food joint. And before you ask, yes, alternative milk options like oat milk are available — for an extra charge, of course.
According to early reviewers, the drinks lean on the sweeter side, which could be perfect if you’re not into the bitter, earthy matcha taste. Nina described her iced oat milk matcha as “really good” and said she’d definitely buy it again. Another TikToker called it “literally perfect,” praising its balance of sweetness and that distinct matcha flavor — not too grassy, not too bland.
The launch is being treated as a trial, and Macca’s is being tight-lipped about whether the range will expand nationwide. So for now, it’s a bit of a treasure hunt. Some Sydneysiders and Melburnians have struck gold, while others are left disappointed to find their local menus matcha-free. And of course, people in other states are already begging Macca’s to roll it out nationwide — “Why does Sydney and Melbourne get all the cool stuff?” has basically become the comment section’s anthem.
Whether you're a hardcore matcha fan or just love trying new drinks, this limited-time drop from Macca’s feels like a win. It's a playful nod to the trend, it's Instagrammable, and more importantly — it’s real this time. So, if you’re in NSW or Victoria, maybe swing by your local Macca’s and see if you can snag one. And if not? Keep your fingers crossed. Judging by the hype, it might just go national soon.
