Kyoto Jade — Vegan Matcha Creami

Matcha is like a good Riesling — the bitterness is not a mistake, it is the point. Sift the powder like you mean it, blend until the color is even jade with no dark specks, and do not let it sit in the sun before freezing or your beautiful green oxidizes to army-surplus olive. Serve it to someone who says vegan ice cream is boring and watch their face.
