Honey and Whiskey Ice Cream
"This was a winning entry from the UK's "Masterchef" television programme in 1995. You don't need an ice cream maker and can use any liquid honey. I use Spanish orange blossom but the original used bell heather."

Absolutely gorgeous! Easy and absolutely orgasmic!!! Creamy, not too sweet and a kick of whiskey. Just perfect! -
Delightful! I made this for Father's Day. Great flavor (I used Jameson Whiskey and fireweed honey). I also used an ice cream maker since I went to the trouble of borrowing one before I found this recipe. I used the 'zaar conversion function to convert to imperial and increase to six servings. It was too much for the icecream maker, so a ended up just freezing a third of it in a loaf pan. The batch in the ice cream maker was creamier, but the plain frozen batch was good too, just a little icier. -
To die for! So yummy, strong honey whiskey flavor, not sickly sweet, thick and creamy! And dead easy, too! I wouldn't change a thing!
