Ingredients

8-10 fresh mint leaves
4 limes, juiced (about 1/2 cup)
2 cups vanilla ice cream
1/2 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons water (or additional ice for thickness)

Instructions

Lightly crush mint leaves to release their oils with a muddler or spoon.
In a high-powered blender, combine mint leaves, lime juice, sugar, and water. Blend until fully pureed.
Add half the heavy cream and all the ice cream to the blender. Blend again until smooth and creamy.
If the mixture is too thick, add remaining heavy cream and blend briefly to thin.
Pour into two large glasses and garnish with fresh mint and lime wedges.

Notes

For a non-dairy version, use coconut cream and plant-based ice cream.
Ensure ingredients are well-frozen for optimal texture.
Serve immediately for best consistency; thicker shaking may cause separation.
