Frosty Lime Sherbet
Ingredients
  • 1 1/3 C. fresh citrus juice from 4 limes, 1 orange and 2 lemons
  • 1 C. granulated sugar
  • 1 C. water
  • 1 1/2 C. full-fat plain yogurt
  • 1/2 t. fine grain sea salt
Instructions
  1. Zest the limes and set them aside.
  2. Juice the limes, oranges and lemons and strain the juice. You will need 1 1/3 C. of fresh juice--- 3/4 C. fresh lime juice, 1/4 C. fresh orange juice and 1/3 C. fresh lemon juice. Refrigerate the juices until cold.
  3. Combine the sugar and water in a small saucepan over medium heat and cook (stirring) until the sugar is dissolved. This will give you a simple syrup for your sherbet. Cool and then refrigerate.
  4. Combine the chilled juices, the chilled simple syrup and the yogurt and whip to combine. I used a hand-held mixer. You want the ingredients to form a smooth liquid.
  5. Freeze in your ice cream maker. When the mixture begins to thicken in your ice cream maker, add the lime zest and the 1/2 t. salt. Continue to freeze. Once your sherbet is frozen, serve or store in your freezer.
  6. Garnish with lime zest and a sprig of mint.
