Tips

  • Frozen strawberries work. Thaw them first and use all the juice.
  • Taste a berry first. If they are tart or pale, add 1 extra tbsp sugar.
  • For bigger fruit pieces, add a few diced, sugared berries with Mix-in after the first spin.

Why it works

Macerating pulls juice from the berries and dissolves the sugar, so less fruit water freezes into ice. Plenty of cream and a little cream cheese balance the water the fruit adds.
