Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 24 ounces root beer let it sit in a bowl for a couple of hours or stir it to make it flat
  • 1 cups whole milk
  • ½ cups sweetened condensed milk

Instructions
 

  • Prepare your ice cream maker ahead of time. Mine has to freeze for 24 hours prior to use, so I don't start the next step until it's well frozen.
  • Whisk all three ingredients in a bowl, and then chill them in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours. They must be very very cold before you add them to your ice cream machine.
  • Pour the chilled mixture into your prepared ice cream maker.
  • Let the ice cream machine work for 20-30 minutes, or until it shuts itself off or the ice cream is frozen.
  • Ice cream out of an ice cream machine has a soft serve consistency. If you want harder ice cream, spoon it into an airtight ice cream container and freeze for 2-4 hours.
  • Scoop and serve with whipped cream and some sprinkles.

Notes

This recipe will work beautifully with any flavor of soda. We make root beer most often, but it's equally delicious with Mountain Dew, cream soda, birch beer, black cherry, and orange.
