Frozen Lemon Sorbet Martini Recipes

LEMON SORBET

Steps:

• In a saucepan, stir together the diced lemon peel, 1 cup of water and sugar. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from the heat, and allow to cool.
• In a pitcher or bowl, stir together the lemon syrup with peel, lemon juice and mineral water. Pour into an ice cream maker, and freeze according to the manufacturer's instructions. Garnish each serving with a twist of lemon peel.
• If you do not have an ice cream maker, you may freeze it in a tall canister. Freeze for 1 1/2 hours. Remove and stir with a whisk. Return to the freezer and stir about once every hour for about 4 hours. The more times you stir, the more air will be incorporated, resulting in a lighter finished product.

HOW TO MAKE TRADITIONAL ITALIAN LEMON SORBET

Steps:

• Let's start preparing the lemons. Wash them very carefully then dry them. With the help of a peeler, remove the lemon peel, being careful NOT to remove the white, bitter part.
• Cut the lemons in half and squeeze them to collect the juice. If you have a juice extractor you can use it to have a more concentrated, tasty and slag-free juice.
• Place water, sugar and lemon zest in a saucepan. Cook over low heat for about 5 minutes, stirring constantly, until the sugar has dissolved completely. Turn off the fire and let it cool.
• If necessary filter the lemon juice with a colander then add the syrup without the lemon zest. Mix really well.
• Pour the mixture into a blender and blend everything for about 3 minutes. In this way the mixture will incorporate more air and the sorbet will be creamier.
• If you have an ice cream maker, pour the mixture into the machine and start it. It will take about 40 minutes, depending on the model. After the necessary time, your creamy Italian Lemon Sorbet is ready!
• Pour the blended mixture into the previously frozen stainless steel container. Place in the freezer for about 4 hours. Every 30 minutes you have to break the frozen surface. So remove the sorbet from the freezer and mix using a hand whisk or a low speed electric whisk.

LIMONCELLO SORBET COCKTAIL

• Put the sorbet into the bowl of a food processor. Add the limoncello and vodka and process until smooth. Place the frozen lemon cups onto shot glasses filled with limoncello. Fill the lemon shells with the sorbet mixture and serve.
