LOL
In a nutshell, the idea is to keep the mixture as cold as possible throughout every stage of preparation.
Ideally it would be done in a walk-in fridge
Practically it is easier to do over an ice-bath, with a plastic spoon (Metal spoons transfer the heat from your hands).
Give it a bash and let us know the results. Make a small quantity first, determine the length of time and degree of difficulty and if you feel it is successful for your needs, then re-evaluate the quantities for the next time and make a huge batch - the same amount of work needs to go into making a small batch, as with a larger volume.
With the excess, you can freeze it in pre-portioned batches for later use.
