Use Sicilian or Amalfi lemons for their sharp flavor in this refreshing palate-cleanser. Enhance with a shot of vodka or grappa for an adult twist!
Ingredients:
  • 150 g caster sugar
  • 8 unwaxed lemons (should give you about 300ml juice)
Instructions:
  • Grate lemon zest into a pan, add sugar and 250ml cold water, and warm over low heat until sugar dissolves, about 5 minutes. Strain through a fine sieve into a bowl, returning half the zest to the liquid. Discard the rest. Squeeze in lemon juice, removing any pips. Stir well, cool slightly, then chill in the freezer for around 30 minutes. Transfer to an ice cream machine and churn until sorbet texture. Freeze in a container for 2 hours before serving.
