I bet you haven't heard the words "Ice Cream" and "Superfood" in the same sentence before.
I'm here to change that.
And no, it's not hyperbole. It's real. By following the instructions outlined in this thread, you can have GUILT-FREE Ice Cream that is LITERALLY a Superfood!

When it comes to making the perfect ice cream, sourcing your ingredients is priority number 1.
Finding Raw Milk can be difficult in the United States depending on what state you're in.
I used getrawmilk.com to find a provider near me.

If Raw Milk is illegal in your state, first off, my condolences.
Opt for low-temperature pasteurized milk instead.
If you can't find low-temp pasteurized, try and ensure the milk & cream come from cows that were grass-fed/finished and pasture raised.

The eggs should be pasture raised and corn/soy-free if possible.
Honey should be raw, unfiltered, and local.
Fruits that are in season.
Other ingredients organic and locally sourced whenever possible.

Choosing your Flavor of Ice Cream:
The world is your oyster here. You can use fruit/berries, coffee grounds, dark chocolate, pumpkin puree, etc.
You can get as simple or as fancy as you want. I recommend following @mattloberstein for inspiration if you want to get fancy.

You're going to follow the same exact process for every batch, regardless of the flavor, up until you have you whipped cream mixture ready to go.

Once you have the whipped cream mixture ready you can add the ingredients that will give your batch it's unique flavor.
Berries, dark chocolate, coffee, pumpkin puree, cacao, etc.
Get creative with it. My favorite batches (seen in OP) have been Blueberry and Pumpkin Spice.

At this point, the raw milk in the ice cream maker will be solid and you'll have a delicious heavy cream mixture ready to add into the Ice Cream Maker.
Add it and let the Ice Cream maker do it's thing! This should take about 45 minutes but keep an eye on it.

Lastly I have to pay homage to @CarniClemenza who gave me the blueprints and inspired me to start making ice cream many months ago.
I've been working off of his blueprint and perfecting it ever since!
