"If you thought your matcha order was limited to iced or hot, think again. While matcha is delicious as a cafe beverage or as a traditional ceremonial green tea, it's also great in other forms - including dessert. To easily transform matcha into a frozen sweet treat, for instance, you can simply blend the green tea powder into your favorite vanilla or no-churn ice cream recipe."
"You can certainly transform any standard vanilla ice cream recipe by adding matcha to a Ninja CREAMi recipe or heating matcha powder with milk, cream, sugar, and eggs to churn in a classic ice cream maker, but you don't necessarily need any fancy equipment to make matcha ice cream. You can make matcha green tea shaved ice with sweetened matcha syrup. Or craft an easy no-churn matcha ice cream by simply stirring a few tablespoons of matcha into condensed milk, folding in whipped cream,"
Matcha adapts well to ice cream and frozen desserts, bringing earthy, grassy, umami notes that pair with sugar and dairy for creamy texture. Matcha can be blended into vanilla or no‑churn ice cream bases, used in shaved ice with sweetened matcha syrup, or incorporated into custard-based churned recipes. No special equipment is required for no‑churn methods: stir matcha into condensed milk, fold in whipped cream, freeze in an airtight container. Mix‑ins and complementary flavors like marshmallow bits or lavender enhance the profile. Both ceremonial and culinary grades work, with ceremonial providing a more pronounced taste.
