Tips & Tricks:

For a smoother texture, strain the mixture before churning to remove any lavender bits.

If you don’t have an ice cream maker, freeze the mixture in a shallow pan, stirring every 30 minutes to break up ice crystals.

To prevent ice cream from becoming too hard, add a tablespoon of vodka to the mixture before churning.
