Ice Cream Maker

Yield: 1 1/2 quarts

Instructions:

In a small saucepan, combine the 6 tea bags and 1/2 cup of the milk until bubbles are visible; immediately take off heat and steep for 5 minutes. Strain tea bags, squeezing out all of the remaining liquid. Beat eggs in a medium size bowl. Temper the warm tea/milk mixture with the eggs (meaning add a quarter of the warm tea/milk to the beaten eggs and keep whisking until completely combined). Add sugar and heavy cream. Whisk vigorously, until well combined. Follow directions on a commercial ice cream maker. As the ice cream machine is going slowly add the mixture. Time for 30 minutes. After this time ice cream will be ready to consume or remove and place in an airtight plastic container and freeze.
