Mint Sorbet

 ref: https://www.thespruceeats.com/mint-sorbet-recipe-1375786

I cut the sugar in half because it seemed like too much sugar. Also skipped the stove top part. It's too hot to use the stove in summer.

Mix together

  • 1 cup finely chopped packed fresh mint leaves
  • 3/4 c sugar

Then mix in 

  • 1 cup boiling water
Sugar should dissolve. Cover and let steep till cool. (Kind of like making mint tea.)

Strain out mint leaves.

Then add while stirring

  • 1/2 c liquid (if you add milk then it's sherbert)
  • 1/4 c sweet wine wine (perhaps could use a tablespoon of vodka instead?)
  • juice and zest from one lemon (about 1/2 c usually)
Churn in ice cream maker per manufacturer's directions.
