You can make the entire thing vegan if you use a splash of dairy alternative milk to blend (almond, hemp, and coconut milks are all nice). Adding a little bit of alcohol to ice cream helps it stay smooth and creamy rather than become very icy, because alcohol has a low freezing temperature. But too much alcohol will make it so the ice cream never sets up, not necessarily a bad thing if you're in the mood for a boozy milkshake!
