Manhattan Cocktail Ice Cream

Step 1

Whisk together the cream, milk, and sugar and stir to dissolve the sugar.

Step 2

Add the whiskey, vermouth, bitters, and cherry juice. At this point I like to chill the mixture for an hour or two, but it's not absolutely necessary if you're in a rush. As long as it's cold, you're good to go.

Step 3

Pour the mixture into your ice cream machine and churn according to your machine's directions.  Note: alcohol spiked ice cream churns a little bit softer than regular ice cream recipes.

Step 4

When the ice cream is almost finished, add in the cherries and allow them to get fully incorprated.

Step 5

Scoop the soft ice cream into a freezer safe container and freeze for at least a few hours until scoopable.

Step 6

Serve a scoop or two in a lowball glass, garnished with a cherry.
