I’m going to start this by not appologizing. :)   Because frankly, booze and ice cream seems to be a magic combination and I am so loving finding new ways to mess around with it!

Its raspberry and blackberry season, so, a nice dairy-free ice cream to finish the meal is just perfect.  This one freezes more stiffly than the other’s I’ve made- I tried increasing the fat content to prevent that, but uh… putting in coconut oil was a bad idea, the first round.  Since the fruits are watery, the oil didn’t blend with them, and instead turned into sand like grains of crunchy gritty chunk. Eugh. So, don’t add in oil to change the freezing tendency.  You might wish to try using some agar agar (about 2 -3 tsp of the powder) during the fruit simmering phase.  That might be the perfect solution.

Ok, here’s the recipe!
