Comments
Thank you for this recipe. I wanted a more traditional sorbet, so I gave this one a go. My daughter didn't want the midori becuse of the alcohol, so I didn't add it, but I'm going to make another batch with it! I used lemons and limes I got cheap at Woolies so I just juiced them up and added the juice to the syrup stages to make sure the limes didn't make it too tart. I only beat it once as I wanted to eat it as dessert tonight! I've snuck a taste and it's a lovely texture and has a perfect tang for lemon/lime sorbet.
