2 (3-inch) strips lime zest |
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice |
2 cups blueberries |
2 cups lemon sorbet (optional) |
Directions:
1. Bring 2 cups water, 1/2 cup blackberries, sugar, ginger, and lime zest to a boil over medium-high heat in a saucepan, stirring just until sugar is dissolved. Boil for 5 minutes.
