Do you have an ice cream maker? That's the easiest way- The recipe is very simple;
3C (750ml) Milk (NOT cream)
1C (250ml) Lime Juice
1C sugar
a drop or two of green food colouring
Combine all ingrediants, stiring until sugar is dissolved and freeze according to the directions on your machine. Or pour into trays and freeze, removing from freezer and beating till smooth (but not melted) after about 1 hour, and every hour until frozen.
Orange is just as easy with 3C milk, 2 C smooth orange juice and 1 c sugar.
And a bonus recipe (cause I have it out now
)
Raspberry Sorbet
2/3 cup (150 ml) water
1 quart (1 L) raspberries, fresh or frozen
1/2 cup (125 ml) sugar
2 Tbsp. (30 ml) orange juice
2 tsp. (10 ml) grated lemon peel
2 Tbsp. (30 ml) lemon juice
Combine water, sugar and lemon peel in small saucepan. Bring to a boil on medium heat, stirring
constantly. Remove from heat and allow to cool. Place raspberries, orange juice and lemon juice
in a blender and process at a medium speed until smooth. If desired,
pour both mixtures into ice cream maker canister through a fine strainer or cheesecloth to remove lemon peel
and berry seeds. Stir well. Freeze as directed.
(Blackberry sorbet is just as good! Just substitute blackberries for raspberries - it's going to be berry picking season soon!)
I have another recipe for lime or orange sherbet, but I have never actually used them as they call for Jello so I can't vouch for how good they are. If ya wanna give them a try let me know and I'll post them too.
