I've made this beverage mix many times as Christmas gifts for neighbors and our three sons' teachers. The mint flavor makes the warm drink so refreshing, you'll want to make extra to keep around your house, too.

Homemade Peppermint Ice CreamWhen peppermint stick ice cream isn't available, I crush 15-20 hard peppermint candies or small candy canes and fold into a half gallon of softened vanilla ice cream. —Barb Gribble, Arena, Wisconsin

I've had this recipe for 25 plus years also as such, but we never added it to milk because it has milk in it already.... But I also didn't add the candy to the mix, BUT I serve it with a scoop of Cool whip on top and a pepperment stick to flavor.Gloria

We found this recipe in Country Woman many years ago, and my daughter (10)'s teachers have been enjoying it every year since!It's GREAT in coffee! We make a triple batch, and put extra mints. (Instead of 25, we put a whole 250 piece bag in it!)Can you imagine the time it takes to open 250 peppermints?? LOL! It's worth every second!Deanna
