He filled a plastic bag with orange juice. minutes later.. i have to try this!

If you think homemade desserts mean mixing, baking, and endless waiting, think again.

This incredibly simple ice-cream trick is about to change your summer forever. You don’t need an ice-cream machine, a fancy blender, or even a stove. All you need are a few things you already have: ice, salt, milk, sugar, and two plastic bags. That’s it. Five minutes later—boom—you’re holding a cup of homemade ice cream so cold and creamy it feels like magic.

Here’s the best part: it’s science meets dessert. The salt doesn’t just add flavor — it lowers the freezing point of the ice, making it cold enough to turn your milk mixture into a dreamy scoop of soft, icy heaven. So while it may sound like a lazy kitchen hack, it’s also a tiny science experiment that makes kids (and adults) feel like geniuses.

Picture this: it’s boiling hot outside, your face feels like it’s melting, and all you want is something cold. You grab a few ice cubes, toss them into a ziplock bag with some salt, pour the sweet, creamy mixture into a smaller bag, seal it, and start shaking. A few minutes later, you unzip your creation—and there it is: your ice cream, with no machines, no mess, no waiting. The best part? You made it yourself.

You can also go wild with flavors. Add chocolate syrup for a richer taste, crush some strawberries, or drizzle in a bit of vanilla extract. Want to impress the kids? Throw in some mini M&Ms and call it “Shake-and-Freeze Ice Cream.” Want to treat yourself? A splash of coffee or caramel turns it into an adult-worthy dessert in seconds.

So next time you’re melting in the heat, don’t buy store-bought tubs or overpriced popsicles. Grab a couple of plastic bags and a handful of ice—you’ve got everything you need to whip up your own refreshing masterpiece. It’s the kind of dessert that makes everyone say, “Wait… you made this?!”

Because when it’s too hot to move, easy tastes even better.
