Immerse yourself in herbaceous freshness with our irresistible Lemon-Basil Ice Cream, crafted with passion in Ninja Creami. This dazzling frozen creation combines the lively acidity of lemon with the aromatic touch of basil, delivering a burst of refreshing flavors with every taste. Let yourself be carried away by the vibrant fusion of these premium ingredients, creating a unique taste harmony. My artisanal recipe captures the essence of summer with a lemony zest balanced by the subtle sweetness of basil.

Ingredients

  • 200 ml of fresh lemon juice
    100 g of sugar
    1 bunch of fresh basil (about 20 leaves)
    100 ml of 15% liquid cream
    100 ml of milk
    Zest of a lemon

Instructions

  • Mix the lemon juice and sugar until the sugar dissolves.
  • In a saucepan, mix the basil leaves and the liquid cream. Heat over low heat, let it infuse for 15 minutes. Filter and let cool.
  • In a bowl, mix the crème fraîche with the lemon syrup, add the lemon zest.
  • Pour the mixture into the Ninja Creami container.
  • Freeze for 24 hours.
  • Use the Ice Cream option of Ninja Creami for a creamy texture.
  • At the end of the cycle, add two shots of liquid of your choice (agave syrup, water, liquid cream) and run a re-spin cycle for the perfect consistency.
    Tip: Replace the limoncello with lemon syrup for an alcohol-free version.
