Rum and Coke Ice Cream
- 3/4 cup (175g) cola syrup (see Note)
- 7 large egg yolks
- 2 cups plus 3 tablespoons (525g) whole milk
- 1/4 cup plus 3 tablespoons (65g) Appleton Estate Jamaica rum or other golden rum
- Set up an ice bath in a large bowl.
- Put 2 tablespoons of the cola syrup in a bowl with the egg yolks.
- Put the remaining 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons cola syrup and the milk in a saucepan.
- Whisk together and bring to a simmer.
- This may look curdled; dont worry, it will come together with the yolks.
- Whisk the yolks and syrup until light.
- When the milk mixture is simmering, slowly whisk about 1 cup into the yolks for about 1 minute to temper them (keep the pan off the heat while you do this).
- Then scrape the yolks into the saucepan and cook, stirring pretty much constantly, until the mixture reaches 180F.
- Keep an eye on the color of the foam on the surface; when it turns the same color as the mixture, youre very close to the right temperature.
- Strain into a medium bowl and set into the ice bath.
- Chill completely, stirring often.
- Mix thoroughly with an immersion blender, then freeze in an ice cream maker.
- Add the rum just before the ice cream finishes churning.
- Pack into a plastic container and freeze for at least 2 hours before serving.
