- 4 cups strawberries, hulled and chopped
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon rum
- 1 vanilla bean, halved lengthwise and seeds scraped
- 1 cup plain whole-milk Greek yogurt
Directions
A full 24 hours before you make your frozen yogurt, place your ice cream maker insert into the freezer.
Add strawberries, sugar, lemon zest, lemon juice, and rum to a bowl and toss. Cover with plastic wrap and let the strawberries macerate at room temperature for 1 hour.
Add the strawberries with their juices to a food processor. Pulse the berries, and then add the vanilla beans seeds and yogurt. Continue to blend until smooth.
Place in the refrigerator to chill for 1 hour.

HOLY COW BATMAN!!!!! This is unbelievable! This is only the second frozen dessert I have made. The first one was lousy so I almost didn't try this. So glad I did! It tastes like a frozen strawberry smoothie. Followed the recipe exactly except I actually used non fat yogurt and about 1/2 tsp vanilla. The texture was still wonderful and I couldn't tell it was non fat. I also added more lemon because I like it tangy. Next time I might try only 1/2 cup sugar, but NOT because its too sweet...its perfect. Just thinking lower calorie. I am not an ice cream fan, but had already eaten a lot of this before it was done in the machine. My Dad is an ice cream fanatic and was blown away. And all this with no chemical additives! This is fresher and yummier than anything store bought I have had. Thank you so much Neelys!!!!!

This was fantantastic. I used a bit more lemon rind and juice and replaced rum and vanilla bean with a tablespoon of vanilla extract. Was actually one of the best desserts I ever made.
