I don’t know what it is about makers of ice cream. Why do they feel like there has to be eggs in it? Why do they feel like there has to be MILK? I guess I understand the milk a little. But like, why can’t I go into an ice cream store and get something that doesn’t have eggs or dairy? Why isn’t there some kind of ANYTHING available for me to eat at the ice cream parlor?! I’m getting tired of taking my son there and having to just have a soda…Wait, what am I talking about?! I can’t possibly even walk into an ice cream parlor anymore–not with my daughters in tow…then there’d be serious issues since they can’t eat anything there…toddlers and upset tummies NO!!! Screw all that jazz. I’m boycotting ice cream parlors until they start selling stuff my daughters can eat. I’ll just stay home and make delicious ice creams on my own. Like this awesome Eggless and Dairy-Free Orange Sherbet. It’s like a tiny hug in a bowl. For those of us who just don’t do dairy or eggs. I MEAN, WHO PUTS EGGS IN ICE CREAM?! (are we back to that again?)
Ingredients for Orange Sherbet
- 4 cans coconut milk (for whatever reason Thai Kitchen 1st press has been working best for me lately)
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tspn orange extract (or 2, whatever, it really can’t be too orangey)
- 4 drops orange gel food coloring
How to Make Orange Sherbet
- To make the ice cream, open your coconut milk cans and scoop the thick cream part into a bowl, trying to get as little of the coconut water as possible. Discard coconut water or just set aside for chugging later, whatever. You can throw some strawberries or pineapple off into it to make “infused” coconut water. I don’t care–just don’t try to make ice cream with it.
- Mix on high 2-3 minutes with a hand mixer until it becomes stiff and fluffy.
- Place in the freezer for approximately 2 hours.
- Proceed to eat like there’s never going to be any sherbet left in the world!
