You Can Make Hawaiian-Style Ice Cream Out of Soda

This article is written by a student writer from the Spoon University at Northeastern chapter.

Summer is finally here, and frozen treats are calling your name. Cool off, island-style, with this Hawaiian take on ice cream, Guri Guri, appropriately pronounced: “Goody Goody.” This is a recipe that originated on the island of Maui and is seriously one of the easiest ice cream recipes you’ll ever try.

I personally like to use strawberry soda, but you can switch up the flavors by adding any flavored soda you like (although strawberry is bomb, so why fix what isn’t broken?) Whip up a cup of your very own Guri Guri, kick back poolside and soak up the summer sun.

Guri Guri (Hawaiian-Style Ice Cream)

Difficulty:BeginnerPrep time: 10 minutesCook time: 2 minutesServings:4 servings

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. condensed milk

    Pour sweetened condensed milk into large mixing bowl.

  2. cream

    Add in the cream.

  3. sodas

    Slowly add in the lemon-lime soda, followed by your soda of choice.

    Pro tip: Don’t pour in the soda too quickly or vigorously. The Guri Guri gets its airy consistency from the carbonation in the soda, so you don’t want the mixture to de-fizz.

  4. gently combine

    Gently combine the condensed milk, cream, and sodas. Again, you don’t want to whisk away all of the fizzy goodness.

  5. cups

    Pour into cups.

  6. freeze

    Freeze for at least two hours. Three hours is ideal, but we understand you won’t be able to wait that long for this cup of heaven.

  7. mash

    Mash and mix the frozen Guri Guri. It shouldn’t be frozen solid, but shouldn’t be too runny either.

  8. end

    Enjoy outside on a hot summer day. Alohaaaaaa.
