Strawberry ice cream with Xuxu liqueur

Xuxu, this tasty and fragrant -Germany produced- liqueur is the key ingredient for this classic strawberry ice cream. I had tasted Xuxu only once before and that was many years ago on a trip to Aachen. It didn't cross my mind back then that it could be used in such a recipe until a couple of years ago on our Summer trip to Greece we had this ice cream at a cousin's house and we really loved it! Since then this recipe never let us down
