Tea Ice Cream Polish Krem Z Herbaty

---

Homemade ice cream without an ice cream maker. Sophisticated and not too sweet. Nice as a tea float (in cooled tea of the same flavor you used to make the ice cream) or as ice cream sandwiches on shortbread cookies or just straight out of the bowl. Recipe can easily be halved if you don't have much freezer space. Cook time is freezing time.
