Root Beer Filling

Method

Ice Cream Preparation

  1. 1

    Make the Ice Cream Base

    In a medium saucepan, combine heavy cream, whole milk, granulated sugar, vanilla bean paste, and salt. Heat over medium heat until the mixture is warm and sugar is dissolved.

  2. 2

    Temper the Egg Yolks

    In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolks. Gradually add a small amount of the warm cream mixture to the yolks while whisking continuously to temper them.

  3. 3

    Cook the Mixture

    Pour the tempered egg yolks back into the saucepan with the remaining cream mixture. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and coats the back of a spoon (about 10 minutes).

  4. 4

    Chill the Mixture

    Remove the saucepan from heat and let the mixture cool for about 30 minutes, then cover and refrigerate until completely chilled (at least 4 hours or overnight).

Churning and Filling

  1. 5

    Churn the Ice Cream

    Once the mixture is chilled, churn it in an ice cream maker according to the manufacturer's instructions until it reaches a soft-serve consistency.

  2. 6

    Layer the Ice Cream

    Transfer half of the churned ice cream to a loaf pan. Make a well in the center and pour in the Virgil’s Orange Root Beer. Top with remaining ice cream and smooth the top.

  3. 7

    Freeze

    Cover the pan with plastic wrap and freeze for at least 6 hours or until firm.
