Bramble time is here again! I’ve tried various recipes over the years: crumbles, pies, juice, jelly and jam, but when I was on my holidays this year I came across some blackberry ice cream which was so nice I decided to try making some myself, luckily it was easy, the trickiest part being the waiting around.

Looks yum. How was it? And did you finish all your sloe gin off from last year too?

it was very nice, i made it twice, once with double cream, and once with whipping cream, i think i preferred the double cream version though, although that might have just been the enjoyment of making something for the first time.
the sloe gin was a bit of a disaster last year as it clouded up, still better than the nail polish remover they sell in the shops though, when it’s done right it makes the perfect winter warmer.
