If you dont want alcohol in it, use the sambuca flavouring from your local homebrew stockists, there are some 'O' for awesome liquer flavours you can use.Ahem, I like alcohol in mine but the last licorice flav icecream I made was for a pregnant friend of ours (definately no booze for her).

Heres my basic recipe, my lovely lady likes it and she's fussy.

1 bottle of cream

Whip til thick put aside

4 or 5 eggs separated

Whip the egg whites and sugar til smooth and thick, put aside.

whip the yolks and flavouring (to taste) with a little sugar (maybe about a table spoon) till creamy (ish)

then fold all together. put in an old icecream container and freeze

Be creative.
add chocolate syrups, bits, flakes, nuts, lollies etc. I add cocoa and maple syrup and drizzle it thru, Spearmint and choc chip is yum. Maple syrup and walnut is to die for, coconut cream fudge is nice, licorice with chopped pieces is good, rum and raisen mmmhhhhh the choices are endless
