In the past ten years or so Green Tea Ice Cream has been gain in popularity.it will never replace vanilla but it does give you another flavor choice.

Many Asian restaurants serve it and most health food stores carry it and IIRC Tader Joe's carries it.

As for Asian restaurants it is mstly Japanese and Thai ones that carry it.also a n Asian fusion restaurant always carries it on the menu.

In my local Stop & Shop I've seen Haagen Dazs makes a pint of green tea ice cream. I've never tried it, but it did peak my interest as I do love tea infused desserts. Might have to give it a try.

Green Tea Ice Cream

Ingredients -

• 2 cups heavy cream
• 1 cup whole milk
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 6 large eggs
• 2/3 cup sugar
• 2 tablespoons match (powdered Japanese green tea)
• Special equipment: an ice cream maker

Directions - http://www.epicurious.com/recipes/food/views/green-tea-ice-cream-106762

This recipe unfortunately calls for an ice cream maker - does anyone actually own one? Could you make it without the maker and just freeze it directly?

I'll bet this would be good with a flavored tea.

What an interesting idea. Sounds like that childhood riddle: hot as summer and cold as winter.
