This WOULD be fabulous in the summer but unfortunately, I couldn't wait that long so used frozen wild blueberries. This is delicious and so easy! Creamy and sweet with lots of blueberry flavor and a truly beautiful color. I like fruit in my ice cream so didn't strain the mixture before chilling. Wonderful and even easier! Made it in two batches in the Cuisinart ice cream freezer. Thanks, Kim D., for another keeper!

This was really great, especially considering there's no heavy cream in the recipe (although that would no doubt be delicious). I put the mixture in the freezer for two hours instead of the overnight freezer method and it worked just fine. Great blueberry flavor and a beautiful color. I may reduce the sugar just a tad next time, but that's simply personal preference. A keeper for sure!

This does taste awesome and it's a lovely color. I tried it with Splenda and fat free half and half. While it tasted great it didn't freeze correctly. I'm not sure if that was a problem with my mixture or my freezer. It was worth a try. Would be interested in finding out if anyone else has any luck with substitutions.

This ice cream came out very good and very rich and creamy. I didn't sieve the mixture, so it was speckled. I do think my blueberries (frozen) may have been a little sweet. While this was not a huge problem by any means, I think I might reduce the sugar slightly next time. Thank you very much for sharing this recipe with us.

Very colorful and flavorful ice cream, texture almost like half sorbet, half ice cream. I made it exactly as instructed, apart for not sieving it, I preferred it that way. The problem was, mine didn´t freeze properly, just like Sugarpeas didn´t, either. Maybe using heavy cream would make it heavier in fat and easier to freeze, maybe my ice cream maker just could´t cope with the mass?

The blueberries give a very lovely color to this ice cream and it also has an exceptional flavor. I don't have a very good sieve, so some of the peel was left in the mixture. But if you ask me it adds character to the ice cream. I may try juicing the berries next time. I borrowed a freeze that you put the base in the freezer for 24 hours then added your mixture into the base. It froze in no time at all. Thank you for a great recipe we'll be making it over and over again.

I also love the fruit in my ice cream, so I left the fruit in. Made exactly as directed otherwise. Such a pretty color.

Very easy - beautiful color and flavor - worked very well in my Ice cream maker. I strained the blueberries as requested, but then added in a little of the blueberry fixins just to give it some texture. Next time I'll put more in it - because I'll be braver!
