This sorbet makes a lovely intermezzo. The lemon and mint cleanse the palette and the addition of Limoncello keeps it from getting too hard in the freezer. Ingredients:
2 cups water |
1 1/3 cups sugar |
1/2 cup limoncello (italian liqueur) |
1 cup fresh lemon juice (about 6 large lemons) |
1/2 cup chopped fresh mint |
Directions:
1. Combine the water and sugar in a sauce pan, Cook over medium-high heat until the sugar melts. Turn off the heat and add the limoncello, lemon juice and mint. Stir. Cover and chill.
2. Strain through a fine sieve into a bowl. Discard the solids. Pour into the freezer can of an ice-cream maker; freeze according to manufacturers directions.
3. Spoon sorbet into a freezer-safe container; cover and freeze until firm. Can be made in advance.
