People, you don't want to know how much sugar goes into ice cream to make it taste so good. Just count this as a once-in-awhile treat and you'll be okay.
And here's the trick: K.I.S.S.
As my first boss once very seriously told me, "That stands for Keep It Simple Stupid." Core ingredients for great ice cream are simple whole things.
I'll tell you: it tastes quite nice. But I'm very curious as to Blu's Green Tea Ice Cream.....

It's a good thing I don't have an ice cream maker.
I have no willpower.
Do check the Hollywood Farmer's Market for huckleberries.
MMMMMMMM goood!!!
I miss Boysenberries. I remember discovering Boysenberry syrup at iHop as a kid. They would bring around an asst. of flavors and I would allways go for the berry.
Have you ever had a green tea malt?
I will check HOllywood Farmer's Market: thank you for that tip. Willpower is an incredible thing, isn't it?
And no, I have never had a green tea malt. I haven't even had bubble tea. But I am so up for trying that stuff!
Lace it with arsenic and it's done.
3 C half and half (I know, really.)
1 C sugar (just following the recipe)
2 bags of Stash green chai tea cut open
in double boiler heat up half and half. add the tea. bring just to a boil, then cool and refridgerate 12 hours. strain cream mixture into icecream maker. churn until (? mine is supposed to turn itself off- but I'm working with NO directions here) it looks too good to resist. freeze for 2 hours. devour. mine was a little bit sweet- but it was, after all my first try.
the second batch was done in the same manner- but used Celestial Seasonings Mandarin Orange Spice tea.
(just as yummy!)
