Sweet Borage, Blueberry & Ginger Ice Cream

Borage is a diuretic and rich in essential fatty acids, making it helpful for those with arthritis.  Ginger is an anti-inflammatory and blueberries are rich in antioxidants.  Not only is ice-cream good for you it taste delicious too!

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2   cups frozen blueberries, plus extra for garnish
  • 2 frozen bananas or 1/4 cup cashews (soaked in water for 4 hours, then drained)
  • 1/2 cup chilled coconut cream or cream
  • 2-3 Tbsp raw honey or pure maple syrup
  • 3 Tbsp chopped fresh borage flower and/or leaves
  • 1 Tbsp lemon juice
  • 2.5cm piece of fresh ginger, finely grated

Method

Place all ingredients in a food processor and process until well combined and smooth.  This will take a few minutes and you may need to scrape down the sides of the bowl and whizz again.  Taste and adjust to your liking.

Transfer to a container with a lid and keep in the freezer.  If the ice cream becomes too hard, simply place it back into the food processor and process - it will be perfect once more. To Serve

Sprinkle a few extra borage flowers over the top. This can also be made into ice blocks!
Serves 2.
