Strawberry Lemon Mint Sorbet
Strawberry Lemon Mint Sorbet -
a cross between a sorbet and sherbet. Creamy and icy. A delicious dessert – and perfect for this hot summer weather. Use the Southern Simple Syrup from our previous recipes listed in Tea Drinks – but leave out the ginger.
- 6 medium lemons, juiced and strained
- 2 1/2 cups simple syrup
- fresh mint
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup strawberry puree
Pour 2 1/2 cups cold simple syrup into blender. Add lemon juice and heavy cream. Blend. 2 or 3 mint leaves may be blended in, too. Pour into a bowl and place in freezer. Stir sorbet every 20 minutes for 2 hours. Add strawberries as well throughout. Continue freezing until firm. Garnish with mint.
