This eggless, churned ice cream blends pure, tangy pomegranate juice with a rich cream base to create a refreshing treat with a soft rose color. Whole pomegranate seeds are stirred in at the last minute, giving every creamy bite a juicy, sweet-tart pop.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream (chilled)
  • 1 cup whole milk (chilled)
  • 1 cup 100% pure pomegranate juice (unsweetened, chilled)
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup fresh pomegranate seeds (arils)
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extrac

Instructions

1. Mix the Liquid Base

In a large bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, whole milk, pomegranate juice, and sugar. Keep whisking for 2 to 3 minutes until no sugar grains remain at the bottom. Stir in the vanilla extract.

2. Churn

Pour the chilled mixture into your ice cream maker. Run for 20 to 25 minutes until it thickens to the consistency of soft-serve.

3. Add Seeds & Deep Freeze

Scatter the fresh pomegranate seeds into the machine during the final 2 minutes of churning. Mix just long enough to distribute them evenly without crushing them. Transfer the ice cream to a freezer-safe container, press parchment paper directly onto the surface, and freeze for at least 4 hours.

Notes

Serving Suggestions

  • Let the container sit on the counter for 5 to 10 minutes before scooping to soften the edges.
  • Serve in chilled glass bowls topped with fresh mint sprigs or extra pomegranate seeds.
  • Pairs brilliantly alongside dark chocolate brownies or warm lemon olive oil cake.

Tips & Tricks

  • Sugar Check: Always verify the sugar is 100% dissolved before churning to avoid a gritty final texture.
  • No-Churn Option: If you do not have an ice cream maker, whip the heavy cream to soft peaks first, fold in the remaining ingredients, and freeze.
  • Deseeding Hack: Submerge cut pomegranate sections in a bowl of cold water to pop the seeds out cleanly—the heavy seeds sink while the bitter white pith floats.

Storage

  • Store in an airtight container in the coldest part of your freezer.
  • Keeps fresh and smooth for up to 2 weeks.
