Ingredients

Directions

  1. Line a fine-mesh strainer or colander with two layers of dampened cheesecloth and set it over a large bowl.
  2. Combine fresh blackberries and water in a medium saucepan.
  3. Slowly bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat.
  4. Reduce heat to low and simmer gently until the berries are soft and have released their juices, about 10 minutes.
  5. Pour the hot berry mixture into the cheesecloth-lined strainer.
  6. Let the mixture stand undisturbed to drain naturally for about 30 minutes.
  7. Gently squeeze the cheesecloth to extract the remaining juice from the pulp, being careful not to push seeds through.
  8. Measure the strained berry juice and pour it into a heavy medium saucepan.
  9. Add sugar to the juice, increasing heat to bring to a boil.
  10. Boil the syrup for 2 minutes to dissolve the sugar completely, then remove from heat.
  11. Allow the blackberry syrup to cool completely to room temperature.
  12. Stir 2 1/2 cups of the cooled blackberry syrup into the whipping cream until well combined.
  13. Refrigerate the mixture for at least 2 hours until thoroughly chilled.
  14. Churn the blackberry cream mixture in an ice cream maker according to the manufacturer's instructions.
  15. Transfer the soft ice cream to a covered, freezer-safe container.
  16. Freeze for at least 4 hours or until firm enough to scoop.
  17. Serve scoops of ice cream garnished with fresh blackberries and mint leaves.
