Equipment

  • Ice cream maker

Ingredients

  • 2 cup whole milk
  • 2 cup heavy cream
  • 3/4 cup honey
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract or one whole vanilla bean
  • pinch of salt
  • 5 bags chai tea
  • 5 egg yolks

Instructions

  • Bring the milk, 1 cup of the cream, honey, vanilla, and salt just to a simmer, stirring to dissolve the honey.
  • Remove from heat and set the chai tea bags in the cream mixture.
  • Let steep, uncovered, for a half and hour, then remove and discard the tea bags then let the cream mixture cool for 15 minutes.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the 5 egg yolks. Whisking constantly, slowly pour in about a half cup of the cooled cream mixture to temper the yolks, then add them egg yolk mixture to your original cream mixture pot.
  • Heat the new mixture over low heat until it reads 170-175 degrees on a candy thermometer. The mixture should be thick enough that a line drawn with your finger across the back of the spoon will stay.
  • Place a strainer over a large bowl and pour the custard into the bowl through the strainer to remove any little bits of egg, and then stir in the remaining cup of cream.
  • Once strained, refrigerate until very cold or set the bowl in an ice bath to cool it more quickly in a pinch.
  • Then churn in your ice cream maker according to the manufacturer’s instructions, I used this CuisineArt maker and then placed the finished ice cream in a locking mason jar container to freeze for two more hours.
