Ingredients

Scale

Ice Cream Base

  • 2 cups pomegranate juice
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • A pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Mix Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the pomegranate juice, heavy cream, sweetened condensed milk, vanilla extract, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt. Stir thoroughly until all ingredients are evenly mixed and the mixture is smooth.
  2. Churn: Pour the prepared mixture into your ice cream maker. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions to churn the mixture until it achieves a soft serve consistency, which usually takes about 20-25 minutes.
  3. Freeze: Transfer the churned ice cream into a suitable airtight container and freeze for at least 4 hours or until firm to develop the proper texture.
  4. Serve: Scoop the frozen pomegranate ice cream into bowls or cones and enjoy this refreshing, creamy dessert immediately.

Notes

  • Use fresh pomegranate juice for the best flavor and natural tartness.
  • If you don’t have an ice cream maker, you can pour the mixture into a shallow dish, freeze, and stir every 30 minutes until frozen.
  • Adding lemon juice enhances the brightness of the pomegranate flavor.
  • Adjust sweetness by varying the amount of sweetened condensed milk according to taste.
  • For a dairy-free version, substitute heavy cream with coconut cream and use a plant-based condensed milk.
