Mint Matcha Ice Cream

Sugar-free, dairy-free, and made with just 5 ingredients, this vegan mint matcha ice cream is a prefect creamy treat for mint chocolate chip lovers. Mint is full of nutrients. It’s actually one of the most antioxidant-packed herbs. And bonus – it also may help with digestion. It can be a little pricey at the store but is easily grown in a garden, pot, or windowsill. The other key ingredient – matcha – adds a little flavor, but mostly color to this treat. Matcha is simply ground up tea leaves and can be found in the baking or tea section at most grocery stores. This vegan mint matcha ice cream can be made in minutes. Herb + tea + chocolate. YUM!
