Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups grape juice fresh or store-bought
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup condensed milk
  • 1/4 cup sugar adjust to taste
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions
  

Prepare the Grape Base

  • Pour grape juice into a saucepan. Heat on low flame. Let it simmer gently for 8 to 10 minutes. This step helps deepen the flavor. Stir slowly so it does not burn. Let it cool completely before using.

Mix the Cream

  • Take a large bowl and add heavy cream. Whisk it until soft peaks form. Do not overmix it. The cream should look light and fluffy. This gives your ice cream a smooth texture.

Add Sweet Ingredients

  • Now add condensed milk and sugar into the whipped cream. Mix gently using a spatula. Keep the mixture airy. This step adds sweetness and richness.

Combine Grape Juice

  • Slowly pour the cooled grape juice into the cream mixture. Add lemon juice and vanilla extract. Mix gently until everything blends well. The color will look soft purple and creamy.

Strain the Mixture (Optional)

  • If you want a smoother texture, strain the mixture. This removes any pulp or small bits. It is optional but gives a more silky result.

Freeze the Ice Cream

  • Pour the mixture into a freezer-safe container. Cover it tightly. Freeze for at least 5 to 6 hours. For best texture, stir once after 2 hours.

Serve and Enjoy

  • Scoop the ice cream into bowls. Let it sit for 2 minutes before serving. This makes scooping easier. Enjoy the creamy and fruity flavor.

Notes

  • Use fresh grape juice for a natural taste
  • Add crushed grapes for texture
  • Use coconut cream for a dairy-free version
  • Reduce sugar if your juice is already sweet
  • Add a pinch of salt to balance flavors
  • Try mixing grape with berry juice for variation
