Creating homemade Cherry Vanilla Ice Cream is easy if you follow these step-by-step instructions:

1. Mix the Base: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the heavy whipping cream, whole milk, sugar, vanilla extract, almond extract, and salt until the sugar is fully dissolved.
2. Add the Cherries: Fold the halved cherries into the mixture, making sure they are evenly distributed for a perfect balance of flavor in every bite.
3. Chill the Mixture: Cover the bowl and refrigerate the mixture for at least 4 hours, or overnight, to enhance the flavor.
4. Churn the Ice Cream: Pour the chilled mixture into your ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions until it reaches a soft-serve consistency. This usually takes about 20-30 minutes.
5. Freeze and Serve: Transfer the ice cream to an airtight container and freeze for at least 2 hours, or until firm. Scoop into bowls and enjoy!
