Matcha and lime ice cream (Vegan)
This recipe is a little more complicated, an ice cream machine is recommended, however if you don’t have one you can freeze the mixture and stir every twenty minutes or so breaking up the frozen edges to create a creamier ice cream.
The recipe calls for coconut meat, I’m told you can purchase it frozen from some Asian grocery stores. I got mine from the supermarket, drained the water for smoothies and scooped out the inner, I needed the meat from two coconuts to get the 10 ounces required for this recipe.
Don’t be discouraged, it is worth it, the ice cream as creamy and smooth with a hint of bitter matcha and zesty lime.
