Has anyone ever heard of green tea ice cream? Someone told me about it this weekend.

Yes! And it is typically pretty awesome . I can usually only find it in Asian grocery stores. Whole Foods near me sometimes has a soy ice cream that is green tea flavored, though.

I've tried this one: http://www.haagendazs.com/products/product.aspx?id=358

It's by Haagen-Dazs, so I find many places carry it. It's on the expensive side, but also made of natural ingredients (cream, skim milk, sugar, egg yolks, green tea). Enjoy.

I went to the Asian Market on my lunch break and found some. One pit cost $3.99. I'm not really fond of the taste. I LOVE any green tea beverage but the juror is still out on the ice green. Although it taste just like green tea, I'm just not sure.

This is the kind I bought.

I will try this one as well. Thanks.

I just heard about this a few days ago in a video I was watching on YouTube. I've been dying to try it because I LOVE green tea.
Be sure to update if you try the Haagen-Dazs!

Ice cream is a major trigger food for me so I have never tried green tea ice cream. I believe it is made with matcha powder which is a different taste than brewed green tea. Wiki link http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matcha

I've tried green tea ice cream many times out of curiosity, it's well....strange. I think green tea is pretty good (not in love with it) and green tea ice basically tastes as of you made a cup of really string green tea and added a bunch of Hal and half and sugar. I've heard in my town there's a restaurant that serves up fried green tea ice cream which I'd like to try

I absolutely love green tea/matcha ice cream. It's a pretty standard staple at restaurants that serve sushi or hibachi style Japanese food!

I don't think I wanna try anymore. I didn't like it.

well, that's good because even though it has green tea it probably still has all the fat and calories of ice cream lol this isn't exactly a healthy food.

Yes, you are right. LOL
