Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Coconut Mint Lime Ice Cream.
Step 1
Begin by pouring water and sugar into a saucepan, then heat over medium-high until the mixture reaches a rolling boil, stirring occasionally to ensure the sugar dissolves completely, which should take about five minutes.
Step 2
Once boiling, remove the saucepan from heat and stir in one cup of fresh mint leaves.
Step 3
Let this fragrant concoction steep for thirty minutes, allowing the mint to infuse its vibrant flavor.
Step 4
After steeping, strain out the mint leaves and transfer the syrup to the refrigerator to chill thoroughly.
Step 5
Meanwhile, in a blender, combine cream of coconut, the remaining half cup of mint leaves, fresh lime juice, and lime zest.
Step 6
Blend until the mint is finely minced and everything is harmoniously mixed, which should take around one minute.
Step 7
In a mixing bowl, gently combine the cooled syrup with the coconut mixture and sparkling water, stirring carefully to blend the flavors.
Step 8
Finally, pour this refreshing mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions, transforming your creation into a delightful frozen treat.
Step 9
Enjoy the burst of minty coconut bliss on a warm day!.
