Sorvete de Creme de Café, Séc. XIX, Brasil (Coffee Ice Cream, 19th Century, Brazil).

Batem-se oito gemas d/ovos com doze onças de assucar, e ajunta-se uma garrafa de leite fervido com uma quarta de café torrado e coado ; mistura-se bem, dá-se uma fervura, e gela-se.

Eu usei cerca de metade destes ingredientes: 4 gemas, 1 chávena de açúcar, 370 ml de leite e um quarto de chávena de café (descafeinado). Supostamente "uma quarta" de café significa cerca de 3,4 litros, mas mesmo 1,7 litros de café pareceu-me demasiado, pelo que usei apenas um quarto de chávena. Na próxima vez, provavelmente usarei ainda menos, porque mesmo assim ficou com um sabor forte.

Beat eight egg yolks with twelve ounces of sugar, add a bottle of boiled milk with a fourth of roasted and strained coffee; mix well, bring to a boil, and freeze.

I used about half of these ingredients: 4 egg yolks, 1 cup of sugar, 370 ml of milk and a quarter of a cup of coffee (decaffeinated). Supposedly "a fourth" of coffee means about 3.4 liters, but even 1.7 liters of coffee seemed too much, so I just used a quarter of a cup, next time I would probably use even less, as the flavour turned out quite strong,
