Sweet and Cold!

The summer doesn't seem to be cooling off any around here, so it's time to get out of spicy mode and get on to things refreshing!

This didn't firm up as much for me as my usual recipes, but it's delicious just like its soft-served-self! It's very pretty, too.

Sweet Cherry Ice Cream

1 cup raw cashews
1 can coconut milk
1/2 cup Maraschino cherry juice
1/2 cup water
2 cup ice
1/2 cup sugar
1 1/2 teaspoon almond flavoring
10-15 Maraschino cherries
Carob bar, shaved, for garnish (opt.)

1. Blend cashews and coconut milk until very, very smooth. You may need to add the 1/2 cup of water a bit at a time.

2. Add all but cherries and blend until smooth, then add cherries and pulse blend for a couple of seconds.

3. Prepare in ice cream maker according to manufacturer's directions.

It is gluten free, a bit fattening, but full of healthful things!!
