So, long story short… I’ve wanted to try sea salt ice cream, a frozen treat made famous by a certain popular video game, for a pretty long time now. And even though I became vegan within the past year, I wasn’t about to let that stop me! One of the best things I’ve learned about being vegan is that you really don’t have to sacrifice delicious, fun foods in order to be one. I adapted a couple of different recipes (the credits are at the bottom) to make my own version of vegan sea salt ice cream. I figured it might be of interest to other people, so I decided to share it here. :-)
(Vegan) Sea Salt Ice Cream
3 cups soymilk (or other non-dairy milk)
1/2 cup vegetable or canola oil (I imagine any light, flavorless oil would work)
1/2 cup light corn syrup (I usually don’t like to use corn syrup, but I didn’t have any agave nectar in the house. You could also use the aforementioned agave nectar, simple syrup, maple syrup, or any other liquid sweetener you can think of.)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Ground sea salt (This is very subjective! Other recipes I saw recommended as little as 1/2 teaspoon to as much as 2 tablespoons, but I thought 1 teaspoon was more like I imagined sea salt ice cream to taste. I recommend starting with around 1/4 teaspoon, tasting the mixture, and adding more if you feel you want it. I honestly think plain salt would also work just fine, if you don’t have sea salt handy.)
About 6-8 drops blue food coloring, and 2-4 drops green food coloring (Optional of course, but it won’t look like the ones from the games without it! If you’re interested in naturally-derived colors, I’ve heard good things about the ones made by this company.)Instructions:
Mix all ingredients together in a bowl. The oil will probably float on top, but don’t worry about that; it’ll work itself out as it freezes. If you are using an ice cream machine, make sure that the mixture is cold before attempting to make it! Freeze the mixture however you would like. I used an ice cream machine and I noticed that I had to manually stir it now and then myself to get the oil to incorporate properly, but it was perfectly mixed by the end.
If you want, for a more authentic look, after the ice cream is frozen spoon it into popsicle molds, and then place the molds in the freezer for another hour or two. I used these for the batch pictured above, and they turned out great! The amount of ice cream the recipe produced was plenty to fill all six molds, plus with a little extra left over (which I promptly ate :-P).
The texture came out wonderfully, especially considering that this is a vegan treat. I was a bit nervous, but it turned out better than I could have hoped! The taste is also pretty much exactly like I imagined sea salt ice cream would be, even all of those years ago when I was just a kid playing Kingdom Hearts II for the first time. :DI also want to give credit to the recipes that inspired this one! I initially got the idea to make sea salt ice cream in the first place from Gourmet Gaming’s non-vegan version, and my version was adapted from VegWeb’s vegan vanilla ice cream. Both of these sites are awesome, so check them out, and enjoy your ice cream! <3

I was craving an hot weather exam-stress sweet treat, but really didn’t want to go over on calories or sugar or fat with any chocolatey goodness, so I made myself these beautiful delicate sweet treats instead- SO GOOD. I felt like a goddess eating them they looked so magical. This is a good treat to eat when your friends all order huge ice cream sundaes and you are watching out for bikini season. THEY’LL be the ones jealous of how pretty your food is.
I used:
Zest and juice of two limes
Zest and juice of one lemon
Three stevia packets
Water, how much depends on taste (depending on how strong you like your limes)
Edible flowers - available in any salad section at the grocery store.
Mix it all together! It makes about 6 ^ that sized popsicles.
Some variation ideas that could taste even better, could be substituting flavored coconut water for the water, fruit juice, flavored seltzer, or even vanilla almond milk or something similar. Happy summer!
