I finally got an ice cream maker!
What can be better than an ice cream cone or fresh sorbet on a hot summer day? Only a drink of Margarita, but this lemon sorbet is almost as good, I promise.
The recipe I used is simple and straight forward, I looked it up in the manual that came with my ice cream maker. I cannot wait to experiment with it a bit more and perhaps invent my own sorbet recipes, but for now this will do :).
Ingredients:
- 175 g sugar;
- 175 ml water;
- 125 ml lemon juice.
Directions:
- Place sugar and water into a saucepan, bring to a simmer and cook for about a minute until the sugar is completely dissolved. Chill.
- Combine simple syrup and lemon juice and pour into the ice cream maker, follow your machine's instructions.
That is it!
Although I did have to allow it to freeze for a couple more hours prior to serving, after the machine stopped as it was still runny, but according to YouTube videos this is how that goes with about any ice cream making appliance.
