The first time I ever had lavender ice cream was at Jeni’s right the following in Chicago. It was a excellent wildberry lavender taste that was vibrant purple, sweet, floral and uber creamy. Probably one in every of my favourite ice lotions that I’ve ever had. During the summertime, fruity ice lotions are the position it’s at.


I used to assume that including lavender to sweets was a bit weird, but now I’m totally addicted and desire so as to feature it to EVERYTHING. I bought culinary lavender from a native spice store simply a couple of weeks ago and I’m so totally satisfied I did. (You too can purchase it on-line here.) I’ve extra it to selfmade teas, muffins, breads and now ice cream.

Oh yes, ice cream that simply so occurs to be vegan & naturally sweetened. How, you ask?


Well, we use complete fats coconut milk, an extremely creamy and naturally candy milk paired with Almond Breeze AlmondMilk CoconutMilk, which provides a pretty sweetness. Uhhh huhhhh honey, that's gonna be goooooddd.

Beautiful vegan coconut ice cream with tips of lavender and swirls of wild blueberries. Creamy, coconutty and satisfying on a summer time afternoon.So, how will we make it?

First you’ll warm a few of your meals up and blend, then stick within the fridge for simply a couple of hours to chill. The trick to this vegan ice cream is to creating certain that the coconut milk is COLD earlier than really placing it into your ice cream maker. It makes all of the difference.

While the combination is chilling, you’ll make a blueberry compote at the range top. I get pleasure from utilizing wild blueberries attributable to their distinctive and vibrant flavor, but typical blueberries will work simply fine. Once the compote is done, you’ll swirl it within the ice cream and freeze everything till competent to eat!
