Lime Sorbet
Adapted from Recipe in Luscious Lemon Desserts

1 1/2 c sugar
1 1/2 c water
1 tbsp lime zest*
1 1/2 c fresh lime juice
pinch of salt


Combine sugar and water in a saucepan. Heat on medium high heat just to a boil, stirring until the sugar has dissolved. Remove from heat and add zest. Cover and let stand for 10 minutes.

Then pour through a strainer into a medium sized bowl. Stir in the lime juice and salt. Let cool to room temperature. Cover and chill for about 3 hours. It needs to be thoroughly chilled.

Pour into the ice cream freezer and process according to manufacturer's directions. This will be soft but ready to eat.
