In a medium saucepan, combine heavy cream, unsweetened almond milk, and espresso powder. Heat over medium heat until just simmering, stirring occasionally.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the powdered erythritol and egg yolks until well combined. Slowly pour half of the hot cream mixture into the egg yolks, whisking constantly to temper the eggs.
Pour the egg mixture back into the saucepan with the remaining cream mixture. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, until the mixture thickens slightly and coats the back of the spoon, about 5-7 minutes.
Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract and salt. Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a large bowl to remove any cooked egg bits.
Cover the custard with plastic wrap, placing the wrap directly onto the surface to prevent a skin from forming. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or until completely cold.
Once chilled, pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions until it reaches the consistency of soft serve ice cream.
Transfer the ice cream to an airtight container and freeze for at least 2 hours until firm before serving.
