Lemon Sorbet with Balsamic Drizzle
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 1 cup of water
- 1 cup of white sugar
- 1 cup of freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons of balsamic vinegar
Instructions
- In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup of water and 1 cup of white sugar. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar is completely dissolved. Remove from heat and let it cool to room temperature.
- Once the sugar syrup is cooled, stir in 1 cup of freshly squeezed lemon juice. Pour the mixture into a shallow dish and place it in the freezer.
- Every 30 minutes, take the dish out of the freezer and scrape the mixture with a fork to break up any ice crystals. Repeat this process 4-5 times until the sorbet is smooth and frozen.
- While the sorbet is freezing, prepare the balsamic reduction. In a small saucepan, heat 2 tablespoons of balsamic vinegar over medium heat. Let it simmer for 5-7 minutes, or until it has reduced by half and has a syrupy consistency. Remove from heat and let it cool.
- Once the sorbet is ready, scoop it into serving bowls and drizzle with the balsamic reduction. Serve immediately and enjoy!
