I make this every year with rave reviews. Whole milk is a must simply because the amount of water in this recipe puts it on the icy side. Wonderful flavor, just like frozen tea! A nice treat for all ages.07/10/07

This is a really good gelato! Has a good fruity flavor. I took the advice of another post and only added one cup of sugar - I can't imagine adding more! It was great. Less sugar will cut back on the calories of this recipe too.07/30/05
