Equipment

  • Ice Cream Maker
  • Saucepan
  • Mixing Bowl

Ingredients

Fruits

  • 2 cups fresh mulberries Rinsed and dried

Sweeteners

  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar Adjust to taste

Liquids

  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 1-2 teaspoons rosewater To taste
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 pinch salt

Instructions

  • Prepare the Mulberries: Gently rinse the mulberries under cold water to remove any dirt. Allow them to dry on a clean kitchen towel.
  • Make the Mulberry Sauce: In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the mulberries, sugar, and lemon juice. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally until the berries start to break down and form a thick sauce. Remove from heat and let it cool.
  • Combine the Base: In a bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, whole milk, rosewater, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until well combined.
  • Blend the Mixture: Once the mulberry sauce has cooled, blend it into the cream mixture until smooth. You can leave some chunks for texture if you prefer.
  • Chill the Mixture: Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions. If you don’t have one, pour it into a shallow dish and freeze, stirring every 30 minutes until set (about 3-4 hours).
  • Serve: Once the ice cream has reached your desired consistency, serve in bowls or cones! Consider garnishing with fresh mulberries, a drizzle of honey, or crumbled pistachios for an extra touch.

Notes

Store in an airtight container for up to two weeks. Let sit at room temperature for a few minutes before scooping for a creamier consistency.
