Ingredients

Cranberry Puree

  • 1/4 Cup Water
  • 1/4 tsp Salt
  • 12 oz Fresh Cranberries cleaned & sorted
  • 2 Tb Fresh Squeezed Orange Juice

Ice Cream

  • Cups Heavy Cream
  • Cups Whole Milk
  • 1 Cup Sugar
  • Cups Cranberry Puree

Instructions

  • Over medium heat - cook the water, salt and cranberries for 6-7 minutes.
  • Remove from heat and allow to cool for about 10 minutes.
  • Puree the cranberries and orange juice in a blender or food processor. (will make about 1¼ cups puree)
  • Refrigerate cranberry puree for several hours or until cold.

Ice Cream

  • Place your desired ice cream container into the freezer. I use a loaf pan.
  • Mix together the cream, milk, sugar and cranberry puree.
  • Churn the mixture in an ice cream maker according to the manufacturer's instructions.
  • Once the mixture is frozen and creamy, transfer to the cold ice cream container.
  • Freeze for at least 4-6 hours.
  • Thaw for 5-10 minutes before serving.

Notes

*This ice cream still has a tart flavor. Add extra sugar if you prefer a very mildly tart taste.
