Steps:
- 1. Juice oranges so the volume reaches 1 ¼ cups of liquid; set aside. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine cream, milk, sugar and salt. Stir until sugar is completely dissolved.
- 2. In a small bowl, whisk egg yolks until light and pale. Temper the eggs by pouring very slowly about ¼ cup of hot milk mixture, whisk continuously. Pour egg mixture into the saucepan and whisk until very well blended. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring continuously and making sure the mixture DOESN'T boil.
- 3. Remove from heat and let it cool at room temperature. About 30 minutes, add orange juice add Cointreau if using. Stir, transfer to a large measuring cup and let it sit for another 15 minutes before covering with plastic wrap and transferring to the refrigerator overnight.
- 4. Transfer to an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturers' directions, about 20 minutes. Spoon ice cream into container and transfer to the freezer for at least 4 hours.

Tips:
- Use ripe blood oranges for the best flavor. Ripe blood oranges are deep in color and have a slightly sweet, slightly tart taste. Avoid blood oranges that are green or have blemishes.
- Zest the blood oranges before juicing them. The zest of a blood orange is very flavorful and will add a nice citrusy flavor to the ice cream.
- Use a high-quality ice cream maker. A good ice cream maker will help you make smooth, creamy ice cream. If you don't have an ice cream maker, you can still make blood orange ice cream by following the instructions in the recipe and freezing the mixture in a covered container.
- Chill the ice cream base before churning. Chilling the ice cream base will help it churn faster and produce a smoother ice cream.
- Churn the ice cream until it is thick and creamy. The ice cream is ready to churn when it reaches a soft-serve consistency. If you over-churn the ice cream, it will become too hard.
- Transfer the ice cream to a freezer-safe container and freeze for at least 4 hours before serving. This will allow the ice cream to firm up and develop its full flavor.
Conclusion:
Blood orange ice cream is a delicious and refreshing treat that is perfect for any occasion. It is a great way to use up ripe blood oranges and is sure to be a hit with your family and friends. So next time you have some blood oranges on hand, give this recipe a try!
