(Because of alcohol content which affects freezing point, you want to be sure everything is cool to begin with) 8. Put mixture into ice cream maker and proceed per manufacturer’s instructions. 9. About 2 minutes before the ice cream looks ready, slowly add the shredded coconut. 10. Run the ice cream maker about another 5 (not 2) minutes. (The residual rum in the coconut affects the timing.) |
AlternativesFor rum and raisin ice cream, substitute raisins for shredded coconut, substitute regular milk (any fat content) for the coconut milk. All other instructions are the same. |
