If you like orange blossom, you will love this ice cream recipe. The recipe is quite classic and based on an egg ice cream which will give the ice cream a pretty 100% natural color.
The only difficulty with this recipe is finding the right dosage of orange blossom depending on the product you are going to use.
In fact, you will have the choice to use orange blossom water, orange blossom flavor, orange blossom extract or even orange blossom concentrate.
For this recipe, Ice Ice Daddy chose an organic orange blossom water. Precisely the one sold in the famous little blue bottles which protect the precious nectar from UV rays. The only precaution is to check that it is compatible with food use.
