Well, here's the Ginger Ice Cream recipe. Be warned, because of the way it's made, I had to do some wild guestimating on the Ginger Syrup and the Candied Ginger Bits. I may tweak it again sometime, but not soon, I have to try the Ice Cream Base tests, first, and there's only so much ice cream I can stand to have around!
The nutrition counts there are for the whole recipe, if you want a per serving, guestimate your SERVING SIZE and divide that into the final YIELD I give for the whole finished recipe. YSSMV Your Serving Size May Vary!
Oh, I do count carbs for all products, including erythritol, polydextrose and glycerine, based on their CALORIE counts (my theory is that if they have calories, they have carbs. I do deduct fiber. So the E, the PDX are very low carb, the glycerine is actually moderately high carb, though it is low glycemic. There IS a difference, in my view.

-Amount Measure ---Ingredient ---Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
- 200 milliliters heavy cream -- ~ 7/8 C
- 200 milliliters Natrel low lactose Milk 2% -- ~ 7/8 C
- 200 milliliters light cream -- ~ 7/8 C Coffee Cream 18% b.f.
--- 3 whole large egg yolks -- beaten
--- 1 pinch salt
-- 15 milliliters glycerine -- ~ 1 Tbsp
- 300 grams Candied Ginger Root & Light Syrup -- ~ 1 C, syrup portion only
- 130 grams Candied Ginger Root & Light Syrup -- ~ 1 C finely chopped, sugared ginger portion only
Beat the egg yolks thoroughly and set aside. Heat the Ginger Syrup (do not boil) and set aside. Chop
In a heavy bottomed pan, not aluminum, bring the creams and milk to a scald (~ 180F), then stir in the glycerine and the Ginger Syrup til well blended.
Temper the egg yolks with some of the hot cream mixture, then blend all together and stir over medium heat until the mixture just coats the back of a spoon.
Cool the mixture thoroughly, at least 2H and preferably up to 12H or overnight. Churn "following manufacturer's direction" in your ice cream maker of choice. Add in the finely chopped ginger pieces at the very end of the churn cycle.
