So what is the purpose of the Vodka? I know it isn't much but would this be a big person ice cream because of the Vodka?
Swerve
Hi Heidi, The vodka is in the recipe to help produce a smooth texture. Hope this helps! Thanks for stopping by our site!
Roseann
Do you have a suggestion on how to make this if you don’t own an ice cream maker? Thanks
Swerve
Hi Roseann, You could try making this recipe with the steps from this ice cream: https://swervesweet.com/recipes/no-churn-chocolate-ice-cream

I made this tonight with my cuisinart ice-100. I tweaked the recipe a little by cooking up a custard with three egg yolks and a half a cup of milk. then I put the custard through a fine mesh strainer into the 1 cup of cold milk and swerve in the ice bath and let it chill. I cut the cream back to 1 1/2 Cups. It was amazing!!! My son loved it as well. Thanks so much!

And, it is seriously so simple to whip up! Plus, even though is an eggless strawberry ice cream , the mix of ingredients make for such a creamy strawberry ice cream recipe !

I wonder if you can substitute the whole milk with almond milk?
Swerve
Hi Cynthia. It might come out a little icy but it should work. Thank you for the question!

Very good recipe! Thanks! Even my husband liked it, and, generally, he doesn't like or eat sugar substitutes. Next time, I'll probably eat a few of the strawberries before preparing the rest for the mix, because the mixture was a little large for my Cuisinart ice cream maker and necessitated extra clean-up. Also, I'll try adding an extra tablespoon of Vodka to keep the ice cream from freezing hard. If I leave it out to soften, I may forget to eat it and forget to put it back in the freezer.
