  • About

Homemade green tea ice cream is far more aromatic than the store-bought kind. Choose a high-quality green tea powder. The ice cream will only be as good as the tea you put into it.

Ingredients

  • 2⅔ cups heavy cream
  • 1⅓ cups whole milk
  • 1⅓ cups

Method

  1. Bring the cream, milk, sugar, and salt to a simmer, stirring occasionally, over medium heat in a large saucepan. Remove from the heat.
  2. Whisk the yolks in a large mixing bowl just until broken and add ½ cup of the hot cream in a slow, steady stream while whisking consta
