According to an old book on ice cream, Lalla Rookh ice cream is “vanilla ice cream with rum or kirsch added.” Maida Heatter listed a recipe for it in her cookbook.
Vanilla ice cream with rum? Oh that sounds heavenly. I love bread pudding with rum sauce, it is my favorite dessert. I’ ll also have the fried oysters and deviled crab. Thank you very much.
NOM I’ll have one of everything. 😉
