Ice Cream Machine

Ingredients

1 ½ pounds fresh peaches
1 ¼ cups (8.75 ounces, 248 grams) sugar, divided (See Tip 1)
¼ cup (2 ounces, 57 grams) 80-proof liquor such as Vodka or, preferably, Grand Marnier (See Tip 2)
1 cup (8 ounces, 227 grams) heavy cream
1 cup (8 ounces, 227 grams) whole milk
½ cup (5.5 ounces, 156 grams) Karo light corn syrup (See Tip 3)
½ teaspoon Kosher salt

Instructions

Before making the ice cream, place the bowl of the ice cream machine in the freezer for at least 24 hours.
Peel the peaches. (See Tip 4) Slice enough of the peaches into small pieces to measure one cup. In a measuring cup or mixing bowl, combine the peaches with ½ cup sugar and the Grand Marnier or other alcohol. Let stand in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours and up to 2 days.
Roughly chop the remaining peaches and purée at high speed in a blender until very smooth, about 30 seconds. Measure 1 ½ cups of the purée. Extra purée, if there is any, can be put to another use.
In a clean mixing bowl or large measuring cup, whisk together 1 ½ cups of the peach purée with the heavy cream, milk, corn syrup, remaining ¾ cup sugar, and salt until fully combined.
Chill the mixture in the freezer, refrigerator, or ice bath until it is very cold, at least 45°F. Then churn in the ice cream machine according to the manufacturer's instructions.
While the ice cream mixture is churning, strain the peach pieces to drain off the syrup. Discard the syrup.
Add the reserved peach pieces several minutes before the ice cream is ready.
Transfer the ice cream to an airtight container and chill in the freezer for at least 4 hours before serving.
Yield: One Quart.

Notes

May add less sugar for the desired level of sweetness.
If desired, you may omit the alcohol.
If you're concerned, Karo Light Corn Syrup clearly states on its label that it has 0 High Fructose. If you're not sure, read the labels of other brands of light corn syrup.
To peel peaches easily, place them in boiling water for 20 seconds, and then plunge them into ice water to stop cooking. Extra firm peaches may take more than 20 seconds.
