Avocado Matcha Ice Cream

I’m always down for an ice cream pick me up, but especially right now that summer is in full swing! Instead of picking up ice cream at the store, I thought I would make my own for once! I added avocado and matcha, which gives this ice cream a bright green color, creamy texture and the right amount of sweetness! You’ll be surprised with how easy and delicious this ice cream is!
