    Preparation Steps

    1

    In a medium saucepan, combine the coconut milk, heavy cream, honey, and sugar. Heat over low heat, stirring until the sugar is completely dissolved.

    2

    Zest the lime, then juice it. Add a pinch of salt and the vanilla extract to the milk mixture.

    3

    Let the mixture cool completely, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld.

    4

    Pour the chilled mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions until creamy.

    5

    If you don't have an ice cream maker, pour the mixture into a shallow dish and place it in the freezer. Every 30 minutes, stir it to prevent ice crystals from forming.

    6

    Once the ice cream is completely solidified (after about 4-5 hours of freezing), serve garnished with fresh lime wedges or shredded coconut.
