    This vegan matcha ice cream is super easy and entirely fail-proof. Making your own ice cream might seem like a challenge, but I've broken it down to the basics and made it child-level easy! Most importantly, it's also super delicious and refreshing! 

    You will need no fancy equipment, just a great quality matcha tea and absolute basics like banana, cocounut milk and maple syrup. In other words, no churning or expensive ice cream makers are required!

    What Are The ACTUAL Benefits of Matcha Tea?

    Hello Google Scholar, my old friend! I decided to dig up the old academic journals approach and tel you all about fact-checked matcha benefits! Why? I'm tired of health benefits of various foods just being thrown around without an actual source. How does matcha benefit your health?

        • Matcha is super rich in antioxidants: the concentration of epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) available from drinking matcha is 137 times greater compared to regular green tea. Anderton & Weiss.
        • Might decrease liver damage and boost brain function. Healthline
        • Offers potential benefits for various skin conditions such as ulcers, wounds, rosascea, psoriasis and wrinkles as discovered by Hsu.

    That being said, do keep in mind the following. In order to reap all the benefits of matcha, you will need to drink properly brewed tea.
