Do you love wine? Boy, do I have the perfect dessert for you – Wine Ice Cream!
This ice cream may be my favorite ice cream I have ever made! I tasted the mixture before placing it in my ice cream maker and it was love at first bite. I made sure to use one of my favorite wines so that I was ensured to have an ice cream that I enjoyed the taste of. Autumn Harvest Winery is located in Chippewa Falls, Wisconsin and is close to our family that lives in Wisconsin. Chippewa Falls is also known for Leinenkugel’s Beer which is where their brewery is located.
Autumn Harvest’s Blue Heaven is a semi-sweet wine, which works perfectly with this recipe. Whatever wine you choose to use I would recommend that you choose a semi-sweet wine that you enjoy.
***Note: This ice cream contains alcohol and is only for those individuals over the age of 21.
- 3 cups Fat Free Half & Half
- 3/4 cup Sugar
- 3/4 cup wine, semi-sweet (I used Autumn Harvest Blue Heaven)
- Combine all ingredients and pour into your ice cream maker.
- Follow directions for your ice cream machine (mine takes 20 minutes).
- Serve.
- Keep all ingredients cold before combining.
- Ice cream will be soft right from the machine.
- Store leftovers in the freezer; they will be firmer than directly from the machine.

I love this idea! What a fun treat. I always wonder though, how is it possible to have fat-free half and half?

I don’t know how they do the fat free half and half, but I can always find some at Target!
