Ingredients

450 grams (1 pound) strawberries, fresh or frozen 
1 cup of sugar ( 200 g)
 1 1/2 cups plain greek yogurt 
2 tablespoons vodka or kirsh
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

If you are using frozen berries, place them ina bowl and cover with sugar and vodka.
Let them sit until the sugar mostly dissolves, .
By the time they thaw and the sugar dissolves the fruit will have released much of its juices.
For fresh berries slice them before you toss them with sugar and vodka,
If you use fresh strawberries is a good idea break them down a bit by cooking them for a few minutes. If you do this you will need to let it cool before proceeding.
Place the strawberries in a blender or food processor with the greek yogurt,
Pulse until they are combined and the strawberries are broken up.
Remove from the food processor and whisk in the cream, lemon juice and vanilla. Refrigerate the ice cream  mixtures  and hour before freezing.

By machine:
Follow your machine's instructions for freezing the Ice cream. When you will serve remove from freezer about 15 minutes before.

By hand:

After freeze by 1 hour beat by a while and put again in the freezer, After 1 hour freeze and beat again. 
Cover with a plastic  wrap  and chill in the freezer for at least 3 hours  or over night.
