Ingredients
- 2 cups Heavy cream
- 1 cup Whole milk
- 3 tablespoons Loose black tea leaves (or tea bags)
- 5 large Egg yolks
- 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
Directions
Step 1
In a medium saucepan, combine the heavy cream and whole milk. Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until it just begins to steam. Do not boil.
Step 2
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the loose tea leaves (or place the tea bags into the mixture). Cover and let the tea steep for 10 minutes to infuse the cream with its flavor.
Step 3
After steeping, strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a clean bowl to remove the tea leaves (or discard the tea bags). Set the infused cream mixture aside.
Step 4
In a separate medium-sized bowl, whisk the egg yolks and granulated sugar together until the mixture is pale and creamy, about 2–3 minutes.
Step 5
Slowly pour the warm tea-infused cream into the egg yolk mixture, whisking constantly to temper the eggs and prevent scrambling.
Step 6
Return the combined mixture to the saucepan and heat gently over medium-low heat. Stir constantly with a wooden spoon or silicone spatula until the custard thickens enough to coat the back of the spoon. This should take 6–8 minutes. Do not let the mixture boil.
Step 7
Remove the mixture from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract and salt. Let the custard cool to room temperature, then cover and chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight.
Step 8
Once the custard is fully chilled, churn it in an ice cream maker according to the manufacturer's instructions, typically 20–25 minutes, until the mixture reaches the consistency of soft serve.
Step 9
Transfer the churned ice cream to an airtight container and freeze for at least 2 hours to firm up before serving.
Step 10
Scoop and enjoy your Tea Ice Cream as a decadent dessert or a refreshing treat on a warm day!
