Frequently Asked Questions

How can I make this kid-friendly?
If you want a kid-friendly version, just remove the Kahlua from the ingredients when making.

Can I make this in advance?
No, this needs to be made right before serving or the ice cream will melt.

Can I use regular food coloring?
While you can use regular food coloring, I suggest using the gel food coloring. Gel food coloring gives a more vibrant green color.
