Equipment

  • ice cream freezer
  • food processor
  • saucepan

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups peach juice, reduced (Simply Peach used)
  • 1 ½ cups fresh peaches, peeled and pureed
  • 1 ½ cups granulated sugar, divided
  • 2 teaspoons lemon juice
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 3 cups whipping cream
  • 2 cups whole milk
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • ⅛ teaspoon peach extract (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Place the peach juice into a small saucepan. Boil to reduce the peach juice until there are approximately four tablespoons left. (It might take 15 minutes or more to reduce.) It will be syrupy. Cool in the refrigerator while you prepare the other ingredients.
  • Puree the peaches in a food processor or chopper. Pour peach puree into a bowl and add 1/4 cup sugar and the lemon juice. Stir. Let it sit in the refrigerator for 30-60 minutes.
  • Stir together 1 1/4 cups of sugar, salt, whipping cream, milk, vanilla extract, and peach extract (if using). Stir until the sugar dissolves.
  • Add the peach syrup and the peach puree to the milk mixture and stir. Store in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to chill.
  • Place the mixture in an ice cream maker and freeze according to the manufacturer's instructions. When it finishes churning, place it in a storage container and freeze for four hours or overnight for hard ice cream. For soft ice cream, serve immediately.

Notes

Substitutions

Use Simply Peach Juice Drink for this ice cream; however, you can substitute peach nectar or apricot nectar.

Less Sugar

If you prefer less sweet ice cream, reduce the sugar by 1 tablespoon each time you make it until you determine the desired sweetness.

Garnish

Spoon extra peach puree over the ice cream for more peach flavor.
