Looking for the perfect homemade summer treat? Try my Ale-8-One Lemon Ice Cream Floats!
Ingredients
- 2 c. Heavy Whipping Cream
- 1 c. Half-and-Half
- 1 ⅕ c. Sugar
- 5 Egg Yolks
- ½ c. Fresh Lemon Juice
- Zest of Three Lemons
- 1 tsp. Vanilla Extract
- 1 Pinch Kosher Salt
- 6 Pack of Ale-8-One
- Whipped Cream to taste
Instructions
- Over low heat, combine heavy whipping cream, half-and-half, sugar, lemon zest; allow to simmer, stirring, until sugar is dissolved. This will take roughly 5 minutes.
- Remove cream from heat, cover the pan, and steep for 5 minutes.
- Put the cream back on the heat, allowing it to simmer.
- Place egg yolks in a bowl & beat until smooth. Gradually add a little of the warm cream mixture to the eggs (up to roughly ½ c., a couple of tablespoons at a time) bringing them up to temperature without cooking them.
- Combine the warm egg mixture with the large pot of cream.
- Add the lemon juice and vanilla extract; cook/stir until the mixture coats the back of your spatula. This will take 3-5 minutes.
- Transfer to a freezer-safe dish and freeze overnight.
- The next day, add the lemon ice cream to a mason jar. Slowly pour Ale-8-One over the ice cream, making a float. If needed, add more as you eat. Top with whipped cream.
- Enjoy!
