Matchagato (Matcha Affogato) (Vegan, GF, Refined Sugar Free, Naturally Colored, Boozy Option)

I told you I'd get around to making a matcha version follow-up to my amazing Coffee & Cookies Affogato sweetened strictly with dates... Presenting: my "Matchagato." It's like an affogato, but instead of a shot of espresso and a drizzle of amaretto, this boozy-caffeinated ice cream drink is doused with a matcha shot and a little white creme de cacao liqueur (which is vegan + GF!*). AND instead of a scoop of vanilla ice cream, as is used in a traditional affogato, this matchagato has a scoop of- you guessed it- matcha ice cream. VEGAN matcha ice cream that's also refined sugar free. And is really more the texture of a gelato. And tastes like matcha almond heaven. Need I say more? You can just make the matcha ice cream from this recipe, and forgeddabouht the drink component, or you can add the sweetened matcha shot, but leave out the booze (esp. if you can't have sugar on your diet because white creme de cacao has refined sugar). But regardless of how you serve this ice cream, your mind and tastebuds will swoon.
