Notes

 
  • For a lighter rum flavor, reduce the rum in the base to 2 tbsp and replace the rest with 2 tbsp milk.
  • If using vanilla extract instead of vanilla powder, use 2 tsp.
  • Press plastic wrap onto the surface before closing the lid to reduce ice crystals.
  • Best texture is within 2 weeks.
