This dairy-free cherry amaretto ice cream is made with coconut milk and is sweetened with raw honey!
Several years ago I followed a diet called The PH Miracle Diet for Weight Loss. It was a very restrictive diet that was difficult to follow. The diet is dairy-free, sugar-free, mostly vegan with a huge focus on green foods. I was able to follow the diet for 7 months and lost 58 pounds (even though I cheated every single day and ate my coconut milk ice cream)! I was new to real food and I didn’t know about the metabolism-boosting effects of Coconut oil at the time. The Cherry Amaretto Ice Cream from Coconut Bliss was my daily comfort and the only way I was able to follow such a restrictive diet.
Even though I currently eat dairy (I love my raw dairy) I still enjoy eating coconut milk ice cream. I was able to create my own Cherry Amaretto Ice Cream sweetened with raw honey (I’m not a fan of agave) with BPA-free/additive-free coconut milk. This ice cream is heavenly!
