Strawberry Banana Ice Cream

This is an adaptation of an original David Lebovitz recipe. I didn't have enough strawberries, plus I didn't want the sugar count. The secret ingredient here is sour cream. Here in Costa Rica we use natilla instead of sour cream. It's so much different and SO much better! LOL... In the US, I would use Mexican Crema - it will have the same consistency and flavor. COOKING TIME is macerating time.

1. In a small bowl, slice the strawberries and bananas. Add the sugar and vodka, stir well to combine. Macerate for about an hour.
