Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Juicing the Lemons

    Juice the fresh lemons until you have about 1 cup of lemon juice. Strain to remove seeds and pulp if desired.

  2. 2

    Making the Syrup

    In a saucepan, combine water, sugar, and salt. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring until the sugar has dissolved completely. Remove from heat and let it cool.

    Combining Ingredients

    Once the syrup has cooled, mix in the lemon juice. Taste and adjust sweetness if necessary.

  4. 4

    Freezing the Sorbet

    Pour the mixture into a shallow dish or ice cream maker. If using a dish, freeze for about 2-3 hours, stirring every 30 minutes until the sorbet is firm and fluffy.

    Scoop the lemon sorbet into bowls or cones and serve immediately. Enjoy your refreshing treat!
