Crème de cassis is a liqueur that pairs beautifully with rich, slightly tart flavors. For an unusual frozen dessert, I suggest two original combinations that highlight the intensity of the blackcurrant without masking its fruity character. These combinations are perfect for an elegant and delicious end to a meal!
1. Green Apple and Blackcurrant Cream Ice Cream: Tangy Freshness and Fruity Intensity
The green apple, with its tart and crisp flavor, pairs wonderfully with the fruity sweetness of crème de cassis. This combination brings a vibrant freshness that awakens the taste buds while leaving a pleasant fruity note.
- Tip : To make this ice cream, blend a tart green apple into a creamy or lightly sweetened base, then process everything in a Ninja CREAMi. Once your ice cream is served, drizzle with crème de cassis to add a touch of sweetness that balances the apple's tartness.
- Gourmet suggestion : Add a few pieces of fresh green apple as a garnish for extra crunch, or a little lemon zest to enhance the tangy note.
This green apple and blackcurrant combination is perfect for those who love fresh and fruity desserts. It's a combination that evokes orchard berries with a slightly tangy twist!
2. White Chocolate and Blackcurrant Cream Ice Cream: A Sweet and Fruity Duo
For white chocolate lovers, this combination is a real treat! The creamy sweetness of white chocolate is balanced with the fruity intensity of blackcurrant cream, creating a refined and original dessert.
- Tip : Prepare white chocolate ice cream by adding melted pieces of white chocolate to a creamy base before blending it with the Ninja CREAMi. Once ready, add a drizzle of crème de cassis on top for a contrasting visual and flavor experience.
- Gourmet suggestion : Sprinkle with a few raspberries or currants to add a touch of acidity and colour, perfect for a visual effect and a balanced flavour.
This white chocolate and blackcurrant blend is ideal for those seeking a sweet and slightly more sophisticated alternative to classic flavors. A guaranteed indulgent end to a meal!
