Luscious Lemon

Ingredients

  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream

  • 3/4 cup white sugar (or more to taste)

  • 1 cup half-and-half cream

  • 3 tablespoons grated lemon zest

  • 5 large egg yolks

  • 1 cup Indian River Select Lemonade

    Instructions

    1. Combine heavy cream, sugar, half-and-half, and lemon zest in a saucepan; bring to a simmer over low heat.
    2. Cook and stir until sugar is dissolved, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat, cover the saucepan, and allow to sit for 10 minutes.
    3. Uncover the saucepan and bring back to a simmer over low heat. Beat egg yolks in a medium bowl.
    4. Gradually whisk 1 cup hot cream mixture into eggs, several tablespoons at a time. Stir egg mixture back into cream mixture in the saucepan.
    5. Cook and stir over low heat until mixture coats the back of a spoon, 5 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl; cover and refrigerate 8 hours to overnight.
    6. Stir lemonade into chilled ice cream mixture. Freeze in a 4- to 5-quart ice cream maker according to manufacturer’s directions.
    7. Transfer ice cream to a lidded freezer container, then freeze for about 4 hours to ripen flavors before serving.
    8. Enjoy!
