Green Tea Ice Cream
Ever had green tea ice cream before? Green tea (or matcha-flavored) ice cream is no longer limited to neighborhood sushi shops! Ever since matcha became hip, green tea ice cream has become a popular flavor featured at ice cream shops and is now even available in your grocer’s freezer. Unfortunately… most of these versions are jam-packed with sugar and artificial matcha flavoring. But it’s easy to make healthier green tea ice cream at home!
