This dairy-free ice cream is bursting with sweet coconut, red Thai tea and exotic spices, just like the famous Thai Iced Tea.  A Taste of Thai Coconut Milk makes it deliciously satisfying and so wonderfully creamy!

Ingredients

  • 2-13.5 oz cans Coconut Milk, divided
  • 6 Thai tea bags* of choice
  • 1 tablespoon minced ginger
  • 2 cloves
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup of turbinado sugar (Sugar in The Raw) or granulated
  • 6 egg yolks
  • Optional: one stick cinnamon
  • *There are many types of Thai (Iced) tea and most people have their favorite brands, but for this recipe we used: Decaf Chai Sweet Coconut Thai Tea with (Red Tea) by Celestial Seasonings.

Directions

  1. Bring 1 can Andre Prost Coconut Milk to a full boil. Remove from heat and add tea bags, ginger, cloves, cinnamon (if desired) and salt. Stir and cover. Let steep for 5 minutes.
  2. Add sugar and stirring occasionally, simmer for 2-3 minutes to steep some more, and dissolve sugar. Strain hot base through a fine sieve into a medium bowl. Whisk in remaining can of Coconut Milk until smooth.
  3. Meanwhile, beat egg yolks very well, in a medium bowl. Stirring continuously, add (in a thin stream) one cup of coconut Thai tea base to temper beaten egg yolks. Whisk tempered egg yolks into coconut-Thai tea mixture and pour into a medium sized sauce pan.
  4. Cook over a low-medium heat, stirring constantly until mixture is thickened, just before a simmer. A wooden spoon or spatula with a point is best for getting into edges of pan. Remove from heat and pour into a bowl. Cover and refrigerate until cold.
  5. Pour cold Coconut Milk mixture into frozen insert of ice cream maker. Follow instructions for ice cream maker.
