Begin by gathering your ingredients: vanilla ice cream, matcha green tea powder, and milk. Soften the ice cream slightly by letting it sit at room temperature for about 5 minutes.

In your blender, layer the ingredients for optimal mixing. Pour in ½ cup of milk first, followed by 2 teaspoons of matcha powder, and then add the softened vanilla ice cream. Blend on high for 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until the mixture is creamy and smooth.

Once blended to perfection, pour the lush green matcha milkshake into a 12-ounce cup. Consider topping it with whipped cream and a light dusting of sifted matcha powder.
