Prep Time:15 minutes
Additional Time:6 hours
Total Time:15 minutes

Ingredients

  • 2 cups cups heavy whipping cream
  • 1 cup milk for making lavender tea
  • 1 14 oz can sweetened condensed milk
  • ¼ cup honey
  • 2 tablespoons dried culinary lavender
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 2 tablespoons vanilla extract
  • One lemon lemon juice and lemon zest

Instructions

  • Place an empty 6-cup freezer-safe container with a lid into the freezer to chill.
    In a small - medium saucepan over the lowest heat setting, pour in your milk and dried lavender. Let it warm uncovered for 10 minutes, being careful not to let the cream ever bubble or get too warm. Stir regularly while you proceed with the next steps.
    In another large mixing bowl, use a hand mixer to whip the cream to stiff peaks, taking care not to over-whip the cream. Set aside.
    Strain your lavender buds from your milk over a fine-mesh sieve and pour your lavender milk into a large bowl.
    Add in your sweetened condensed milk, vanilla extract, salt, and the juice and zest of one lemon and your honey into your large bowl with lavender milk.
    Gently fold the whipped cream mixture into the bowl with the other ingredients. Mix until well incorporated, being careful not to over-whip.
    Get the container from the freezer and quickly transfer the ice cream mixture to the container. Add the lid. Freeze for 6 hours, until firm. Then scoop, serve, and enjoy!

Notes

Homemade ice cream should be stored in a sealed, air tight container that's easy to scoop from. Because homemade ice creams often aren't prepared with any preservatives or stabilizers, we like to enjoy ours within two weeks. Otherwise, we find they become difficult to scoop or the surface of the ice cream may form ice crystals. The ice cream will not spoil in the freezer in that time frame though.
