What is Earl Grey Tea:

Black tea with a distinct flavor, earl grey. This flavor is derived from bergamot oil, which has a faint citrus flavor.

Why This Recipe is Great:

This homemade ice cream is simple to make and requires no cooking. Making this no-churn ice cream recipe doesn’t require a fancy ice cream maker, but you can if you’d like. All you need is 3 simple ingredients!

For this recipe, I used coconut milk that had been condensed. That is fine if you can’t find it. Use the common kind. I used this because I like how the subtle coconut flavor pairs with Earl Grey tea.
