    I've never tried it myself, but I believe the best way to make ice cream without a machine is to whizz it up well with an electric mixer every 30mins until it sets.

    You can get lavender plants in most garden centres aswell, might save you the cost of going to L'Occitane.

    Very tasty for roasting chicken with too :)

    I have some lavender in my back garden I'd gladly give you! But I reccomend Atkins and Potts lavender syrup...delish! Especially over a bowl of strawberries and ice cream.
