Is using Creme de Menthe in mint chocolate chip ice cream a bad idea?
I've started making boozy ice creams and I'm really happy with the results so far - it makes the texture very smooth. I want to make mint chocolate chip ice cream and wondered if a little creme de menthe would be okay or be overpowering. For reference, I've been using 1/4 cup of whatever liquor complements the ice cream I'm making. Milk+cream are 2.5 cups of liquid. I've never actually tasted creme de menthe so I don't really know how strong the flavor is.
