List of Ingredients
3-4 limes
1/4 C sugar
3 tbsp. water
3/4 C lime juice (juice of about 10 limes)
1 C sugar
2 C cold skim milk
Sugar
6 tbsp. tequila
6 tbsp. triple sec
6 paper thin slices of lime
Recipe
Using vegetable peeler, remove green part of the rind of 3-4 limes. Cut into very thin
strips and cover with cold water in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil. Cover and simmer
5 minutes. Drain and rinse peel.
Stir 1/4 C sugar and 3 tbps. water in a small saucepan over low heat until sugar
dissolves. Bring syrup to boil. Cover and cook 1 minute. Uncover and simmer 1 minute
more. Add lime peel and simmer for 2 minutes. Cover and chill.
Stir lime juice and 1 cup sugar together in a medium bowl until the sugar dissolves. Mix
in skim milk. (This may look curdled, but don't worry about it..will smooth out as the
ice cream maker works its magic!) Add to ice cream freezer and freeze according to
manufacturer's instructions. When sherbet is almost set, add half of the candied lime
peel (drained of juice) to mix. Proces until set. Transfer to container and store in freeze
at least 2 hours.
To serve: Moisten the rims of magarita glasses and dip in sugar to coat well. Scoop
sherbet into glasses and drizzle each with 1 tbsp. tequila and 1 tbsp. triple sec. Garnish
with a lime slice, cut down center and twisted and a piece or two of the candied lime
peel. Serve immediately.
