Tips:

  • Use fresh mint leaves: Fresh mint leaves impart the best flavor to the schnapps ice cream. If you can't find fresh mint, you can use dried mint leaves, but they will not be as flavorful.
  • Use high-quality schnapps: The quality of the schnapps you use will greatly affect the flavor of the ice cream. Choose a schnapps that you enjoy drinking on its own.
  • Don't over-churn the ice cream: Over-churning the ice cream will make it too hard and icy. Churn the ice cream until it is thick and creamy, but still soft enough to scoop.
  • Let the ice cream ripen before serving: After churning, let the ice cream ripen in the freezer for at least 4 hours before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and develop.

Conclusion:

Peppermint schnapps ice cream is a delicious and refreshing treat that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be made with just a few simple ingredients.
