Notes
- You could substitute blueberries or raspberries for the strawberries. Just roast them until they burst slightly.
- Make sure you are using full fat milk and heavy cream. Substituting a lower fat dairy product for either of those will give you an icier, less velvety texture.
- This recipe doesn't take a lot of active prep time but it does require that you let the ingredients chill and freeze so start making it at least a day prior to when you want to serve it.
