Ingredients
  

  • 1 can coconut milk full fat

Method
 

  1. Bring ingredients except vanilla extract to a boil in a medium pot - once it boils turn down heat and simmer softly for 3-4 minutes, until berries begin to pop open. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
  2. Pour cooled mixture into blender and process until creamy smooth, then place in fridge until very cold [overnight is best].
  3. Freeze, stirring every couple of hours until desired consistency [adding piece of parchment paper over top of ice cream to help avoid freezer burn] - OR - pour into ice cream maker and process according to manufacturer's instructions.
  4. Serve immediately as soft serve - OR - remove from freezer before scooping and serve with desired consistency.
