PERFECTLY SWEET AND SOUR LEMON SORBET
Sometimes the simpler the recipe, the greater it tastes. This recipe asks for only three ingredients and still tastes so delicious. I always buy organic lemons especially when using the peel. This treat is not only perfect for hot summer days, but the lemon juice also boosts the immune system with high levels of vitamin C during the flu season in winter times. Make sure to chill the container before transferring in the ice cream from the ice cream maker. If you are lacking the time for the ice cream maker, you can also fill the lemon mixture into an instant popsicle maker for a quick sweet treat.
