Whether you're a longtime matcha fan or new to green tea desserts, this recipe is a delightful way to enjoy a guilt-free indulgence. Packed with antioxidants from ceremonial-grade matcha powder and healthy fats from coconut or almond milk, this dessert is perfect for hot days or a refined after-dinner treat.

🍃 Ingredients (Serves 4–6)

  • 1 ½ cups heavy cream (or full-fat coconut milk for dairy-free)

  • ½ cup unsweetened almond milk

  • 3 egg yolks (optional for richness)

  • 2 tbsp ceremonial grade matcha powder

  • ⅓ cup erythritol or monk fruit sweetener (adjust to taste)

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

  • Pinch of salt

🧊 Instructions

  1. In a medium saucepan, heat almond milk and heavy cream (or coconut milk) over medium-low heat.

  2. In a separate bowl, whisk egg yolks and sweetener until pale and frothy (if using yolks).

  3. Temper the egg mixture by adding a ladle of the hot milk slowly while whisking. Then pour everything back into the saucepan.

  4. Add matcha powder and whisk thoroughly until smooth and evenly green. Add vanilla and a pinch of salt.

  5. Cook for 5–7 minutes until slightly thickened (do not boil).

  6. Remove from heat, strain if needed, and let it cool completely.

  7. Chill mixture in the fridge for 2–3 hours.

  8. Churn in an ice cream maker for 20 minutes or freeze in a container, stirring every 30 minutes for 2–3 hours for a creamy texture.
