Ingredients

  • cup milk
  • 4 Tbsp Rooibos loose tea leaves
  • 2 large eggs free range
  • ½ cup sugar 125ml
  • ¼ cup honey 60ml
  • 2 cups cream heavy or whipping

Instructions

  • Bring the milk to just boiling point and then turn off the heat. Add the tea leaves to the milk and allow to infuse for about 3-4 minutes. Strain and set aside to cool completely in the fridge.
  • Beat the eggs and sugar until fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add the honey and continue to beat for another minute.
  • Measure out one cup of cooled milky tea (if you have less than a cup, top up with extra milk, if you have too much, discard) and add this, with the cream to the egg base and briefly mix.
  • Run the mixture through an ice cream maker until ready according to the manufacturer’s instruction (churn the ice cream).

Notes

Store the ice cream in a sealed container in the freezer.
