Hi!

When I was in London recently I met the loveliest American couple living there. We talked a bit about ice cream, favourite flavours and among many delicious ingredients, one that stuck with me was lychee! I have mostly had lychee sorbets and I typically find that they bring out the rosy-floral and lemony flavour of them rather than the soft, woody undertones of caramelised honey. For this ice cream I wanted to try and bring out that flavour as well without overpowering the juiciness of the fresh lychees.

I am so pleased with how the flavour turned out and my partner said that this is his favourite ice cream I have made so far (and he is typically a sorbet-bro - sorbro? - or a rum raisin fiend).
