Notes

You can swap strawberries for blueberries, raspberries, or mango to create different flavors.
If you prefer a lower sugar option, substitute sugar with monk fruit sweetener or erythritol.
For a smoother texture, re-spin the ice cream if it appears crumbly after the first cycle.
This recipe works great with almond milk or coconut milk for a dairy-free version, though the texture may be less creamy.
