Ceremonial Matcha Gelato

I bought the good ceremonial matcha for lattes, then immediately funneled it into this Matcha Gelato in the Ninja Creami instead. No regrets. It's grassy and a little sweet with that real green tea bite, the dense gelato texture rather than airy ice cream. My sister, who lives at the matcha cafe down her block, said it tasted like the real deal, then ate most of the pint. Sift the matcha before whisking it into the base or you'll get bitter little green clumps. First spin looks powdery, add milk and re-spin until it's smooth.
