Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Lemon juice
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 2 cups Water
- 1 tablespoon Lemon zest
- 0.5 cup Heavy cream (optional for creamier texture)
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the water and sugar. Place over medium heat and stir until the sugar is completely dissolved to create a simple syrup. Remove from heat and let it cool to room temperature.
Once the simple syrup has cooled, stir in the lemon juice and lemon zest. If a creamier texture is desired, also mix in the heavy cream at this step.
Pour the mixture into a container and chill it in the refrigerator for at least 2-3 hours or until cold.
Set up your ice cream maker according to the manufacturer's instructions. Pour the chilled mixture into the ice cream maker and churn for about 20-25 minutes or until the sherbet achieves a smooth, frozen consistency.
Once churned, transfer the sherbet to an airtight container and freeze for an additional 2-3 hours for a firmer texture.
Serve in bowls or cones and enjoy your homemade Lemon Ice Sherbet!
