    Lime Sorbet


    Source of Recipe


    Adapted from Recipe in Luscious Lemon Desserts

    Recipe Introduction



    I used limes in place of lemons and this is just so refreshing! Tangy and delicious.


    List of Ingredients





    1 1/2 c sugar
    1 1/2 c water
    1 tbsp lime zest*
    1 1/2 c fresh lime juice
    pinch of salt


    Recipe




    Combine sugar and water in a saucepan.
    Heat on medium high heat just to a boil, stirring until the sugar has dissolved.
    Remove from heat and add zest.
    Cover and let stand for 10 minutes.
    Then pour through a strainer into a medium sized bowl.
    Stir in the lime juice and salt.
    Let cool to room temperature.
    Cover and chill for about 3 hours. It needs to be thoroughly chilled.
    Pour into the ice cream freezer and process according to manufacturer's directions.

    This will be soft but ready to eat.

    NOTES:
    I used a little more than 1 tbsp zest and it was very tangy.

    The original recipe calls for the same amounts using lemons.
