Coconut Milk Kefir Cherry Ice Cream (vegan, paleo, keto & body ecology) is the perfect summertime ice cream recipe to cool down & is filled with probiotics. If you are like me trying to be conscious about re-setting your gut health but you still want a yummy treat that can help you cool off. Well, look no further. The other day I was scrolling through the Facebook feed and I saw a raspberry coconut kefir popsicle recipe video by Body Ecology and I couldn’t help but think how genius that is. So I went ahead and created my own ice cream version.
Coconut Milk Kefir Cherry Ice Cream (vegan, paleo, keto & body ecology) notes:
- You can use any fruits that you desire, I choose to use cherry but I think any berry or even plain would taste amazing!
