Lime Ice Cream

Lime Ice Cream
2-3 lbs limes (you need 3 cups worth of juice)
1-2 cups sugar (start with 1 cup, and then if the mixture needs more, gradually add a tad at a time)
1 quart heavy cream
1 quart half & half
1-2 cups milk (we used 2 %)
Zest an entire lime and set that aside. Cut the remaining limes in half, juicing each one in order to yield 3 cups of juice. In a large bowl, combine cream, half & half, and milk. Add sugar, lime juice, and lime zest. Taste to make sure it is sweet enough, and add more lime zest if desired.
Freeze according to manufacturer's instructions, and enjoy nice and cold! Freeze leftovers in tupperware

You must adjust this according to the size of your Ice Cream Maker. We have the Cusinart... not the one where you need ice and salt.
