Why This Strawberry Sensation Ice Cream:

Why This Strawberry Sensation Ice Cream?

• Fresh and Flavorful: Made with ripe strawberries for a burst of natural sweetness.
• Easy to Make: Simple ingredients and straightforward preparation.
• Perfect for Summer: A refreshing treat to cool down on hot days.

 

Ingredients:

• 2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
• 3/4 cup granulated sugar
• 2 cups heavy cream
• 1 cup whole milk
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 tbsp lemon juice (optional, for extra tanginess)

How to Make Strawberry Sensation Ice Cream:

1. Prepare the Strawberries:
   1. In a medium bowl, combine the sliced strawberries and 1/4 cup of sugar. Mix well and let sit for 30 minutes to macerate, releasing their juices.
2. Blend the Strawberries:
   1. Using a blender or food processor, puree the macerated strawberries until smooth. If you prefer a chunkier texture, blend half of the strawberries and leave the rest as chunks.
3. Make the Ice Cream Base:
   1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the heavy cream, whole milk, remaining 1/2 cup of sugar, and vanilla extract. Mix until the sugar is dissolved.
   2. Stir in the strawberry puree and lemon juice (if using) until well combined.
4. Chill the Mixture:
   1. Cover the bowl and refrigerate the mixture for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best results. This allows the flavors to meld and the mixture to chill thoroughly.
5. Churn the Ice Cream:
   1. Pour the chilled mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions, usually about 20-25 minutes, until it reaches a soft-serve consistency.
6. Freeze the Ice Cream:
   1. Transfer the churned ice cream to an airtight container and freeze for at least 2 hours, or until firm.
7. Serve and Enjoy:
   1. Scoop the Strawberry Sensation Ice Cream into bowls or cones, and enjoy immediately. Store any leftovers in the freezer.

Tips:

• For an extra burst of flavor, add a tablespoon of strawberry liqueur to the mixture before churning.
• Use a mix of strawberries and raspberries for a mixed berry ice cream.
• Garnish with fresh strawberries or a drizzle of strawberry syrup for a beautiful presentation.
