2 tablespoons matcha green tea powder
2 1/2 tablespoons arrowroot powder, plus 3 tablespoons creamer
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Instructions

- Add matcha green tea powder and whisk until dissolved, another 2-3 minutes. Alternatively, you may use a hand blender or transfer to blender to ensure the matcha powder dissolves well.
- In a separate small bowl, whisk arrowroot powder and soymilk creamer and then add into pot and stir mixture until thick.
- Remove from heat and add sea salt and vanilla. Whisk to combine.
- Pour mixture into a shallow dish and let cool completely and transfer to refrigerator. Cool for 1-2 hours in refrigerator
- Transfer chilled mixture to ice cream maker and process according to directions. Usually about 30 minutes.
