Mojito Sorbet

This week I moved out of uni for the final time, and whilst I am looking for a job, I'm also taking some time to relax and recharge after a very exhausting end of term/year/degree. So, what's the best way to relax in the summer sun? Stay inside and make sorbet of course! Though this isn't *technically* a mojito sorbet as I used gin instead of white rum, it tastes like one so that's good enough for me!



Mojito Sorbet
Bare Necessities
60ml Gin/White Rum
175ml Lime Juice (approx 6 Limes)
Zest of 2 Limes
150g Sugar
30g Mint Leaves
560ml Water

1. In a saucepan, stir in all of the ingredients and gently heat until the sugar has dissolved.
2. Remove from the heat and cover for a few minutes to allow the mint to steep.
3. Strain the mixture through a sieve into a jug, making sure to squeeze all of the liquid out of the mint leaves.
4. Pour the mixture into your ice cream machine and freeze according to your manufacturer's settings.
5. Once frozen, pop the sorbet into the freezer for a couple hours to allow it to chill fully.
6. Serve up and enjoy!
