👩🍳 FAQs
You sure can! The whipped cream adds fluffiness to the ice cream much like churning it would.
No churn ice cream is made without eggs and usually uses something like sweetened condensed milk to help with the texture and keep ice crystals from forming.
My mom used to save the juice for making jello. Sometimes I add club soda to drained fruit juice to make a homemade fizzy drink for the kids. I've also been known to add it to cocktails.

✍🏻 A note from Marye...
I know y'all don't always like the stories bloggers tell so when I have one I try to put it at the very bottom so you can read or skip as you like.
We spent last week down in Port Aransas for our family vacation. We rented a condo right on the beach and spent a week picking sand out of our teeth and dodging Portuguese Man-o-Wars that had washed up on the beach.
It was seriously the most relaxing week I've had since... well since our last vacation!
There was a small ice cream shop that we visited that literally had lines out the door. It was at least a ten minute wait just to get to the place where you could pick out the ice cream you wanted.
When we finally got there I decided on a bright mango cone. It was good but I felt like the flavor was too... ummm.... for lack of better word -- flat and one dimensional.
I felt sure that I could improve it.
And... I did.
