A refreshingly simple citrus ice, perfect for a hot summer day. This recipe uses the bright, zesty flavors of lemon but feels free to experiment with other citrus fruits like oranges or limes for a unique twist.

Recipe View If using an ice cream maker, follow the manufacturer's instructions. Once the sherbet reaches a soft-serve consistency, it's ready to enjoy. For a firmer texture, transfer it to a container and freeze for an additional 30-60 minutes.

For a richer flavor, consider using heavy cream or half-and-half instead of milk. This will create a creamier, more decadent ice.
Adjust the amount of sugar to your liking, depending on the tartness of your lemons. Start with 2 cups and add more if needed.
To prevent large ice crystals from forming, ensure the mixture is thoroughly stirred during the freezing process.
This recipe can be easily doubled or tripled to serve a larger crowd.

    I used coconut milk and it turned out amazing! A great dairy-free option.

    This recipe is so easy and refreshing! I made it with limes and it was a huge hit!

  • Hubert Von

    The key is to stir it often while it's freezing. I didn't stir enough the first time and it was a bit too icy.
