Try it yourself with this fun and simple recipe:
• In a pint or quart-size zip-lock bag, mix ½ cup of milk or half and half, 1 Tbsp. sugar, and ¼ tsp. vanilla. Tightly zip the bag.
• In a gallon-size zip-lock bag, mix 6 Tbsp. rock salt (or ice cream salt) with ice cubes that fill up half of the bag.
• Place the small bag in the large bag and zip it closed.
• Shake until the mixture has an ice cream consistency (about 5 minutes).
• You may need to hold the bag with a cloth as it is cold and drippy!
