Time 8h55m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 4

¼ cup raisins
¼ cup dark rum
1 quart vanilla ice cream
⅛ teaspoon ground nutmeg

Steps:

  • Place the raisins in a small bowl, pour on the rum, cover with plastic wrap, and allow the raisins to steep overnight.
  • The next day, remove ice cream from freezer and allow to stand at room temperature until the ice cream is softened but not melting, about 15 minutes. Scoop the ice cream into a large bowl, and stir in the rum-soaked raisins, any extra rum in the bowl, and nutmeg until the ice cream is well mixed. The rum will soften the ice cream and make mixing easier.
  • Pack the flavored ice cream back into the carton and refreeze until needed, at least 1/2 hour.

Tips:

  • Fresh is best: Use fresh currants whenever possible. Fresh currants are more flavorful and have a brighter color than dried currants.
  • Soak the currants: Soaking the currants in rum before adding them to the ice cream base helps to plump them up and infuse them with flavor.
  • Use a good quality rum: The type of rum you use will have a big impact on the flavor of the ice cream. Choose a rum that is smooth and flavorful, such as a dark or aged rum.
  • Chill the ice cream base thoroughly: Before churning the ice cream, make sure the ice cream base is completely chilled. This will help the ice cream to churn more quickly and smoothly.
  • Churn the ice cream until it is thick and creamy: The ice cream is done churning when it is thick and creamy, and has reached a soft-serve consistency. Do not over-churn the ice cream, as this will make it too hard.
  • Freeze the ice cream for at least 4 hours before serving: This will allow the ice cream to firm up and develop its full flavor.

Conclusion:

This rum currant ice cream is a delicious and refreshing treat that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you like your ice cream sweet or boozy, this recipe is sure to please. So next time you are looking for a special dessert, give this rum currant ice cream a try. You won't be disappointed!
