Ingredients

• 1 cup water
• 6 strips of lemon zest, for garnish
• 0.5 cup lemon juice
• 0.5 cup sugar
• 1 lemon's peel, finely diced
• 0.5 cup carbonated mineral water

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Stir diced lemon peel, 1 cup of water, and sugar together in a saucepan; bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from the heat, and allow to cool.

Step 2

Stir lemon syrup with peel, lemon juice, and mineral water together in a pitcher or bowl. Pour into an ice cream maker, and freeze according to the manufacturer's instructions. Garnish each serving with a twist of lemon peel.

Step 3

If you do not have an ice cream maker, you may freeze it in a tall canister. Freeze for 1 ½ hours. Remove and stir with a whisk. Return to the freezer and stir about once every hour for about 4 hours. The more times you stir, the more air will be incorporated, resulting in a lighter finished product.
