Ingredients
  • 1 cup blueberries, rinsed
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 2 tablespoons dried culinary lavender blossoms
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
  • 3 cups half-and-half

Directions
  1. In a 1- to 1 1/2-quart pan over medium-high heat, stir blueberries, sugar, and 1/2 cup water until berries begin to pop, 4 to 5 minutes. Pour mixture through a fine strainer set over a bowl. Pour blueberries into a blender. Return berry syrup to pan.
  2. Add lavender to syrup and stir over medium heat until syrup is infused with flavor, about 5 minutes. Strain into blender, pressing to extract liquid. Discard lavender.
  3. Add cinnamon and vanilla to blender; whirl until mixture is smooth. Pour into a bowl, nest in ice water, and stir often until cold, about 15 minutes. Stir in half-and-half.
  4. Pour chilled mixture into an ice cream maker (1 1/2-qt. or larger capacity). Freeze according to manufacturer's directions until firm enough to scoop. Serve, or transfer to a container and freeze, airtight, up to 1 week.

I make a lot of ice cream in general. So for this recipe I used 1 cup heavy cream and 2 cups half and half. The recipe came out excellent.
The lavendar was faint but I just loved the bluebery color anyway ! Not too sweet either and I enjoyed that also.
I tend to add richeness of cream to any ice cream recipe when there is a sugar syrup in the recipe. When frozen the texture seems better.
