How to Make Ice Cream Honey

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup honey, 1/2 cup water, and 1/4 cup rum. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring until honey dissolves completely.
  2. Remove from heat and add 1 cup raisins. Let the raisins steep in the honey mixture for at least 30 minutes, or until plumped and softened.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 large egg yolks and 1/4 cup granulated sugar until pale and slightly thickened.
  4. Gradually whisk in 1 cup heavy cream until combined.
  5. Strain the steeped raisins, reserving the honey syrup. Gently fold the raisins into the egg yolk mixture.
  6. In a chilled bowl, beat the remaining 2 cups heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the raisin mixture.
  7. Pour the reserved honey syrup over the mixture and fold gently to combine.
  8. Pour the mixture into a freezer-safe container. Cover and freeze for at least 4 hours, or until solid.
  9. Allow the ice cream to soften slightly before scooping and serving. Garnish with extra raisins or a drizzle of honey, if desired.
