- 2 cups fresh raspberries
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup whole milk
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
- In a blender or food processor, blend the raspberries until smooth. Strain the mixture through a fine sieve to remove the seeds, then set aside the raspberry puree.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the heavy cream, whole milk, sugar, lemon juice, lemon zest, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Whisk until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture is smooth.
- Fold in the raspberry puree into the cream mixture and stir gently until well combined.
- Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and follow the manufacturer’s instructions to churn until the ice cream reaches a soft-serve consistency.
- Transfer the ice cream into a lidded container and freeze for at least 4 hours or until firm.
- Serve and enjoy!
Notes
- For a smoother texture, use fresh raspberries. Frozen raspberries can be used but might create a slightly different texture.
- If you don’t have an ice cream maker, pour the mixture into a shallow pan and freeze. Stir every 30 minutes for about 2-3 hours until the ice cream firms up.
- For extra flavor, you can add a few chopped fresh mint leaves into the ice cream before churning.
