5 Healthy Summer Ice Cream Recipes (Dairy-Free & Anti-Inflammatory)
It’s that time of year in Madrid when temperatures shift overnight from a fresh spring breeze to sauna heat. If you and your family are craving an ice-cold, anti-inflammatory refresher, this is for you.
At home, we’ve been making these with the kids since they were two. With the help of a kitchen tower, they can jump right in and blend safely alongside you. If toddlers can make them, so can you - no fancy machine required.
What You’ll Need
High-speed food processor (I Use Vorwerk Thermomix).
Silicone spatula
Funnel & piping bag (optional, for effortless filling)
A quick note on fruit: We love mixing up flavors based on what’s fresh in the fridge. Keep in mind that different fruits contain varying amounts of water, so feel free to adjust your liquid ratios slightly to hit that perfectly velvety texture.
