Ingredients

• 1 cup white sugar
• 1 cup water
• 2 tablespoons rum
• 1 cup freshly squeezed lime juice
• 0.5 cup mint leaves, packed
• 0.25 cup grated lime zest
• 1.5 cups citrus-flavored sparkling water

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Heat the water, sugar, and mint leaves in a saucepan over medium heat, and stir until the sugar is dissolved. Bring the mixture to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer for 3 to 5 minutes to extract the mint flavor. Set the mixture aside to cool, and strain out the mint leaves.

Step 2

Pour the cooled mint mixture, lime zest, lime juice, sparkling water, and rum into a bowl and mix well. Pour into the container of an ice cream maker, and freeze according to the manufacturer's instructions. Serve immediately for a softer texture, or freeze in a sealed container for a harder sorbet. Let hard-frozen sorbet thaw a few minutes before serving.
