    Jump to Recipe Pin

    This sweet homemade no-churn Vegan Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream is super easy to make. Made with all-natural green color.

    After making a Vegan Shamrock Shake, I knew I had to make some Vegan Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream.

    The mint ice cream that I used in the vegan shake was begging for some chocolate chips to be added to it.

    This mint chocolate chip ice cream is dangerously good! It's got the perfect amount of sweetness, peppermint extract, and chopped chocolate chips.

    Other recipes to try are my Healthy Mint Chocolate Chip Smoothie recipe, Homemade Vegan Peppermint Patties, Vegan Mint Hot Chocolate recipe, and Vegan Chocolate Peppermint Truffles.

    🔪 Instructions

    Step 1: Mix all the ingredients except chocolate chips in a high-speed blender.

    Step 2: Partially freeze the mixture, then add finely chopped dark chocolate chips. This is so they don't sink to the bottom.

    💭 Tips

    • If you don't have both spirulina and matcha green tea powder, you could use just one of them. You'll get a blueish-green vegan ice cream with spirulina powder and a yellowish-green ice cream with matcha green tea.
    • Partially freeze the mixture before adding the chopped chocolate chips. That way they won't sink to the bottom. Then, freeze again.
    • It takes a while to freeze because of the high sugar content in the sweetened condensed coconut milk.

    Equipment

    • high speed blender

    Ingredients

    • 11.25 ounces sweetened condensed coconut milk (1 cup)
    • 1 cup coconut milk
    • ½ teaspoon matcha green tea powder*
    • ½ teaspoon spirulina powder*
    • ½ teaspoon peppermint extract
    • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    • Pinch salt
    • ½ cup chocolate chips chopped
    US Customary - Metric

    Instructions

    • Mix all the ingredients in a Nutribullet or high speed blender except the chocolate chips. Partially freeze overnight (this is so that chocolate chips don't sink to the bottom).
    • Add chocolate chips and freeze.

    Notes

    *You could use all matcha green tea or all spirulina powder, but I like the color of combining the two.
    An 11.25-ounce can of Nature's Charm sweetened condensed coconut milk has 1 cup of Sweetened condensed coconut milk in it, so you'll use the whole can.
    If you use another brand or homemade, make sure to measure 1 cup.
    This recipe will last up to a month in an airtight container in the freezer.
