A creamy, colorful swirl of pink dragonfruit and bubblegum flavors, loaded with rainbow sprinkles for a magical treat!
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups heavy cream (cold)
- 1 cup whole milk
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ½ tsp bubblegum extract (adjust to taste)
- ½ cup dragonfruit purée (pitaya, fresh or frozen, blended smooth)
- A few drops pink food coloring (optional, for brightness)
- A few drops purple or blue food coloring (optional, for bubblegum streaks)
- ½ cup rainbow sprinkles (jimmies style, to prevent bleeding)
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together heavy cream, milk, sugar, vanilla, and bubblegum extract until sugar dissolves.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 2–3 hours, or until very cold.
- Pour into an ice cream maker and churn according to manufacturer’s directions (about 20–25 minutes).
- Once churned, gently fold in the dragonfruit purée to create pink streaks.
- Add a few drops of purple/blue food coloring and lightly swirl with a spatula for a bubblegum effect.
- Fold in sprinkles at the end (reserve a little for topping).
- Transfer to a freezer container, top with extra sprinkles, and freeze at least 4 hours until scoopable.
Notes
- Adjust the amount of bubblegum extract to your taste preference.
- For a more vibrant color, add more food coloring as desired.
- Ensure the ice cream maker bowl is fully frozen before churning.
