Fresh Georgia Peach Ice Cream

INGREDIENTS
2 cups finely chopped ripe peaches, peeled if you prefer

1-1/4 cups sugar

Juice of 1/2 lemon

2 large eggs

2 cups heavy or whipping cream

1 cup milk

DIRECTIONS

1). Combine the peaches, 1/2 cup sugar, and the lemon juice in a bowl. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours, stirring every 30 minutes. 

2). Remove the peaches from the fridge and drain the juice into another bowl, saving the juice. Return the peaches to the fridge. 

3). Whisk the eggs in a bowl until light and fluffy. Whisk in remaining 3/4 cup sugar, a little at a time, then continue whisking until completely blended, about 1 minute. Pour in the cream and milk and whisk to lend. Add the peach juice and blend. 

4). Transfer the mixture to an ice cream maker and freeze rolling the manufacturer's instructions. 

5). After the ice cream stiffens, (just 1-2 minutes before it's done), add the peaches, then continue freezing until the ice cream is ready.
