Cool. Creamy. Refreshingly Minty.

This no-cook Mint Chocolate Chip ice cream delivers old-fashioned ice cream shop flavor — without the sugar or complicated prep. It’s made with real cream, half & half, allulose for natural sweetness, and a splash of vodka for that perfect soft-scoop texture. The result? A lusciously smooth, mint-infused ice cream with just the right amount of chocolatey crunch in every bite. It’s nostalgic, simple, and made from ingredients you actually recognize. Proof that eating well doesn’t mean giving up your favorite childhood flavors.

Ingredients

1 ½ cups heavy cream
1 ½ cups half & half
¾ cup allulose (90 g, or adjust to taste)
2 Tbsp vodka (optional, keeps it scoopable)
1 tsp vanilla extract

Pinch of salt
4 oz (115 g) sugar-free dark chocolate chips or chopped dark chocolate
(optional) a few drops natural green food coloring

Instructions

Mix the base
- In a large bowl or blender, combine heavy cream, half & half, allulose, salt, vodka, vanilla, and peppermint extract.
- Blend or whisk until the allulose is mostly dissolved.
Chill

Churn
