Yummmm!! I used rice milk and used honey, it was FANTASTIC. In my opinion, it taste even better than ice cream. However....

• I couldn't put it in a bag because it keps spilling from it mid-shake (and YES, I DID close it right). I used a container instead and sealed it with a bunch of rubber bands for saftey.
• I had to use two big ziplock bags, because the salt water kept coming out of small holes in the first bag.
• The first time I did it for four minutes, it didn't freeze all the way, but after another eight it was fine.

But overall, this was a great idea.

Oh my goodness!!!!! I just tried this and it was fantastic! I also used unsweetened almond milk, but I added a scoop of chocolate protein powder, some instant coffee, and a bit of splenda. I lost some patience, so it came out not quite as thick as ice cream, more like a really thick frappuccino, which was still really good! It came out to 180 calories, 6 grams of fat, and 27 grams of protein. Maybe a little high in fat, but I'm almost always under on my fat, so no biggie. Next time I think I'll try 1.25 -1.5 scoops of protein to make it a bit more chocolate-y. Definitely worth trying!!!!!

After you make a serving, do you think the ice/salt will hold up well enough to freeze another serving? I think if I put two cups of almond milk in the bag it will take too long to shake. Or will I have to start from scratch with new ice and salt?

Yum! Plan to try.

Someone should invent a "shake weight ice cream maker".

I tried this idea today but not with almond milk. I wanted something a bit more rich with more protein.

Blended together the following ingredients:
1/2 cup Fage 0% plain yogurt
2 tbsp PB2
1/2 banana
1/4 cup sugar-free syrup
dash of vanilla
dash of cinnamon
... shook in the ice bag per OP's instructions... Voila! Frozen Yogurt!!!

I'm going to bump this so I can try this a little later. I love ice cream. It is my weakness for sure. Right now I have some coconut milk. I hope it is still good, because I sure want to try it.

I just realized I don't have almond milk , I don't know what I was thinking. Wonder if coconut would work???

Throw in a little Nutella and some nuts* for a not so chunky monkey?

*Stir the nuts in after freezing, but before it sets hard.

Here's a recipe for a non-fat, low-cal tasty ice cream treat.

Fill a large zip lock bag with ice and add a 1/2 cup of table salt. The salt is to make the ice super cold and speed freezing. It does not touch the ice cream.
In a measuring cup, pour 1 cup of almond milk (I like PureAlmond Unsweetened only 35 calories for 1 cup)
1/2 tsp vanilla
2 tbsp of a natural or artificial sweetner (Splenda, Truvia, honey, etc..).
Mix well and pour liquid into a smaller zip lock bag and seal it tight.
Place the small bag inside the larger bag, seal and then shake vigorously for 4 to 5 minutes until the mixture hardens.
Tip: use oven mits to keep your hangs from getting too cold as you shake the bag.
Also, consider adding cinnamon, cocoa or instant coffee to the mixture for variety. Enjoy!
* Add a scoop of vanilla protein and you its an awesome meal replacement!

It definitely curbs any ice cream cravings.

I don't see why it wouldn't. I wouldn't do 2 cups at once.
