Grand Marnier ice cream

Grand Marnier ice cream

A blend of cognac and bitter oranges aged in oak tuns, Grand Marnier brings a fine and delicate flavor that is immediately recognizable. It goes particularly well with ice cream.

No particular difficulty in making this ice cream as we are going to start with an egg ice cream.

This is the first recipe on Ice Ice Daddy .Com in which I will use coloring products. This is of course not mandatory. If you don't put any, your ice cream will have the color of the vanilla ice cream. Personally, when I use Grand Marnier in baking, I prefer that my preparations (cream, ice cream, ...) have a slight orange color.
If you have never used coloring products, you can buy orange dye in specialty stores. Or, mix yellow and red food coloring to get the exact orange tint you want.
And another bonus in this recipe, again not compulsory, small cubes of candied orange peel to give a nice aspect to this ice cream.

You do not have all these ingredients ? No problem. Replace simply powdered glucose by usual sugar (sucrose) and reduce the amount of Grand Marnier (only 45 g). The ice cream texture will not be perfect but you will still get a very good ice cream which will be a little sweeter with a slightly less pronounced Grand Marnier flavor.
