Raspberry Lemon Cream Ice Cream

This Raspberry Lemon Cream Ice Cream is a refreshing and creamy frozen treat that combines the tartness of raspberries with the citrusy zing of lemon, creating a delightful balance of flavors.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 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

Instructions

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. Fold in the raspberry puree into the cream mixture and stir gently until well combined.
  4. 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.
  5. Transfer the ice cream into a lidded container and freeze for at least 4 hours or until firm.
  6. 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.
