Method

  • step 1

    Whip the cream until it just starts to thicken, then lightly whisk in the condensed milk, honey, most of the lime zest, all the juice and the gin.

  • step 2

    Pour into a shallow container and freeze until firm, about 3-4hrs or overnight. You won’t need to stir the cream as it sets – the gin stops it from freezing solid.

  • step 3

    Take the ice cream out of the freezer 10 mins before serving to soften slightly. Top with the remaining lime zest and the raspberries to serve. Will keep frozen for two months.

Hi, thanks for your question. I'm afraid we haven't tried this with coconut cream so can't guarantee the results. You could try our recipe for Vegan vanilla ice cream as this uses coconut milk, and then flavour it with honey and lime (bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/vegan-vanilla-ice-cream). We hope this…

Lovely texture and consistency, rather too sweet and I'd put in more lime next time. But will make again. The alcohol makes it easy to spoon, will use it in other recipes for Ice Cream now.

question

Can non alcoholic gin be used in the recipe? It says that the gin stops the ice cream from becoming completely solid in the freezer. Is it the alcohol that’s actually stopping it? Thank you.

Hi, thanks for your question. Yes it's the alcohol that stops it from freezing as hard. If you prefer to use non alcoholic gin then you might need to remove the ice cream from the freezer about 10 mins before serving to allow it to soften. We hope this helps. Best wishes, BBC Good Food Team.
