This lemon ice cream dessert is so light and fluffy – I mean, it’s basically ice cream. A person always has room for ice cream, right? (That’s actually one of my dad’s favorite things to say – “studies have shown that you really DO always have room for ice cream…” He thinks he’s so smart.)

    This was a PERFECT dessert for a warm summer day!! I made a version with lemonade concentrate and then tried it a 2nd time with a strawberry lemonade concentrate….both were FABULOUS!!! Am considering trying it with Orange Juice concentrate to see if it’ll taste like a creamsicle?!?!

    1. Kristi, You just made my day! Strawberry Lemonade sounds DIVINE and I bet Orange will be the best yet! I still need to try Guava or passionfruit concentrate.
