Step-by-Step Instructions
1
In a medium saucepan, whisk together the heavy cream, whole milk, and granulated sugar. Heat the mixture over medium heat, whisking constantly, until the sugar has dissolved and the mixture is hot but not boiling.
2
Remove the mixture from the heat and let it steep for 10-15 minutes with the green tea leaves. Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a clean bowl, discarding the tea leaves.
3
Let the mixture cool to room temperature, then cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight. Once the mixture is chilled, pour it into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions.
4
Once the ice cream is churned, scoop it into small balls and wrap each ball in a thin layer of mochi. Place the mochi-wrapped ice cream balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and freeze for at least 30 minutes to set the mochi.
