Lemon Sorbet (2024)

Ingredients

  • 1 lemon's peel, finely diced

  • 1 cup water

  • ½ cup sugar

  • ½ cup lemon juice

  • ½ cup carbonated mineral water

  • 6 strips of lemon zest, for garnish

Directions

  1. Stir diced lemon peel, 1 cup of water, and sugar together in a saucepan; bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from the heat, and allow to cool.

  2. Stir lemon syrup with peel, lemon juice, and mineral water together in a pitcher or bowl. Pour into an ice cream maker, and freeze according to the manufacturer's instructions. Garnish each serving with a twist of lemon peel.

  3. If you do not have an ice cream maker, you may freeze it in a tall canister. Freeze for 1 ½ hours. Remove and stir with a whisk. Return to the freezer and stir about once every hour for about 4 hours. The more times you stir, the more air will be incorporated, resulting in a lighter finished product.

Cook’s Note
