Adventures in Ice Cream
 

I just got an ice cream maker and I'm trying to experiment with different flavors - the first batch was made with Guinness - so far, it tastes good. It's still mixing right now. Anyone have any good yet unusual flavors or ingredients to try (preferably alcohol based)?

Champagne sorbet is delicious, and ice cream is better than sorbet...so Champagne ice cream would probably be amazing!

I would recommend not doing any Wasabi based flavors - it was the experimental flavor of the week at Cold Stone once, and like a fool, I had to try it. It was so bad, I had to eat two scoops of vanilla just to wash my mouth out.

Knew someone that made homemade ice cream out of vanilla and Amaretto.

Banana Rum = Good (add to a basic vanilla base, IIRC)

Orange Sorbet with Peachtree Schnapps makes a nice Fuzzy Navel ... or you could do Peach sortbet with Grand Marnier, I suppose.

ooooh, wolf - those sound good. I bought these really awesome peaches so I may try the orange sorbet with peach chunks and the schnapps.

How do you intend to study for the bar exam while consuming all this booze?? :angel:

I think that she's going about studying for the bar the very best way.

My undergrad thesis defense was helped along by two shots of Jack and a beer back.

for some reason, i think it helps me stay sane! I don't really make the stuff for me, it's more for my friends so that they let me hang around and bitch about the bar exam.

Wolf's roomie:
"Hey Wolf, don't you have a thesis to work on? Should you be hittin' the sauce?"

Wolf: "Get off my back, it's on substance abuse, I'm doing research."

Actually, it was on immigration patterns and laws in Australia. My undergrad is in Geography and Planning.

It was still basically research, though, because Fosters is 'Straylian for beer, mate.

It's hot enough to boil a monkey's bum t'day, I say the sun's up over the yardarm...

Last time I heard that phrase was on a Monty Python skit........:D
I've always wanted to try making mint chocolate chip with Creme De Menthe, but I don't drink :(

Use the supermarket stuff...no alcohol!

I make killer mint milkshakes with it sometimes.

Ok, I'll bite:

Which bar is giving the exam?
