How much matcha green tea powder should you add to 1 cup of ice cream?

I would like to make my own green tea ice cream with matcha powder and vanilla ice cream but I can%26#039;t find the specific amount to add to a specific amount of ice cream. Some people say to experiment but I have no idea where to start!!|||GREEN TEA ICE CREAM





INGREDIENTS:


3 tbs green tea leaves (whole)


1 cup heavy cream


2 cups cold milk


2 egg yolks


1 tbs cornstarch


1 cup sugar





PREPARATION:





In a saucepan, heat milk slowly to boiling. Then add green tea leaves and cover. Let steep (simmer) for about 15 minutes. Meanwhile, in a mixing bowl, beat egg yolks with sugar and cornstarch. Remove milk from heat and strain out the tea leaves.





Whisk in egg mixture, whisking constantly to keep the eggs from cooking in the hot milk. When mixture is starting to thicken, transfer to a larger bowl and allow to cool. Then stir in the heavy cream. Freeze mixture for at least 2 hours before serving.|||Matcha is very potent, and a little goes a long way. When I make matcha tea, I generally use about one tsp. per half cup of water. That ratio makes a strong cup of matcha tea.





So, translating that to your recipe, I would recommend using 2 tsp. of green tea powder for each cup of liquid in the recipe.|||To experiment, I would start with substituting the green tea powder for the vanilla using a one to one ratio (e.g. 1 cup to 1 cup). Also only experiment with small batches (pint-quart).
