In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the coconut milk, erythritol (or your preferred sugar substitute), and a pinch of salt. Stir the mixture over medium heat for about 5 minutes, until the erythritol has fully dissolved but before the mixture begins to boil.
Remove the saucepan from heat and allow the mixture to cool slightly. Once it is warm but not hot, whisk in the matcha green tea powder until fully incorporated, and add the vanilla extract.
Pour the mixture into a container and cover it with a lid or plastic wrap. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or until completely cold.
Once chilled, pour the mixture into your ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturerβs instructions, generally about 20-30 minutes, until it reaches the consistency of soft-serve ice cream.
Transfer the churned ice cream into a lidded container and freeze for at least 2 hours or until firm.
Before serving, let the ice cream sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes to soften slightly for easier scooping.
Serve scoops of sugar-free green tea ice cream in bowls, and garnish with additional matcha powder if desired.
