Activated Charcoal Soft-Serve Recipe

Chill out with a scoop of creamy soft-serve that’s anything but basic. We blend whole milk, cream, and sugar with activated charcoal, an ingredient that goes through a special heating process (aka “activation”) which helps boost its detoxifying properties. This dessert is ready in just 30 minutes, but if you prefer a thicker consistency, just chill the soft serve in the freezer overnight.
