Raspberry Preserve Ice Cream

We're staying true to summer over here in LA... (it's not over yet!!!)... so we had to share our super easy Raspberry Preserve Vanilla Ice Cream recipe! When I say easy, I mean easy! Not to mention so subtly delicious too! I used my airy Vanilla Ice Cream recipe as a base and then added some flair!

Ingredients
2 cups heavy whipping cream
2 cups milk
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup raspberry preserves
2 cups chocolate chips (optional)
2 teaspoons vanilla flavor
pinch of salt

Instructions
Mix cream, milk, sugar, vanilla and salt together and stir until sugar completely dissolves. Pour into your ice cream maker and mix for about 30 minutes or until you reach your desired consistency. Slowly add in the raspberry preserves so they don't freeze in too large of clumps.

Slowly melt the chocolate chips in the microwave. Tip: Small time increments with lots of stirring in-between works best and keeps the chips from burning. Drizzle chocolate into the churning ice cream maker. The sudden cold temperature will cause the chocolate to harden and crack. Tip: Don't pour in large clumps or you'll end up with giant rock-solid chunks of chocolate.

Pour ice cream in a container and place a piece of parchment paper over the ice cream to keep it from crystalizing. Freeze for 2 hours or more.

Serve and enjoy!

Palm Springs Iconic Home Tour

As some of you may know, this week is Modernism Week in Palm Springs, California and we had the unique opportunity of touring the newly named historic site, the Menrad House, designed by William Krisel. It was the perfect balance of casual flow and minimalist simplicity. All I can say is I wanted to move in right then and there. Loving this retro design and those clerestory windows allowing for all of that natural light without sacrificing ones privacy. That artwork is fantastic and the bedding in that master bedroom... love . This patio cover is to die for. A genius way to provide a bit of shade without feeling closed in. The design is so simple but the overall effect is absolutely stunning. Apparently, these homes sold so fast that a brochure was never even produced to promote them. I snapped a few shots of the neighboring houses and will share them soon. Next up, a tour of vintage trailers and caravans on Saturday. Can't wait to get inspired for wh...

Chai Tea Coffee

I've been having a love affair with my french press lately. There's just something kinda awesome about pouring in the water and watching the tea or coffee swirl around and brew. And don't even get me started on how much I love pressing down the grounds or leaves {yeah… I know that's pretty weird}. The other day I was craving coffee but realized I had run out of milk (which is a must if I'm having coffee). Dilemma? Nope! I thought, why not just brew my favorite tea with a bit of coffee too! I've had a " dirty chai " before and they're not half bad. OMG this concoction was soooooo good! Just mix 1 heaping scoop of White Ayurvedic Chai with 1 scoop of your favorite coffee. Add water and strain (or get that everlasting enjoyment out of pressing that french press like I do!). Add sugar to taste and enjoy! Give it a try! xo Sécia F O L L O W U S O N I N S T A G R A M :: @seciasophia ...
