Lemon Sorbet Love

With our lemon/lime tree finally ripe to harvest and a new ice cream maker, it was destiny to try creating some yummy sorbet. It was really easy and fun...except the washing up cos everything got really sticky...but anyhooz...

1. Dissolve 2 cups of sugar in 2 cups warm water (adjust to your taste) and let cool.

2. Grate about 2 tablespoons of lemon zest. (a lot harder than we imagined- see photo of us attempting to measure and grate at the same time)
3. Squeeze 2 cups of lemon juice.
4. Combine all the ingredients and put it into the ice cream maker until set (approx 25mins) (and no photo as my hands were incredibly sticky at this point)
and ta-da! yummy sorbet...ok...it was a little too sour but I love sour and was scared at the amount of sugar I was putting in. I think I'll definitely add more sugar next time as the eye was beginning to twitch from the sourness.
