Ingrédients
  

  • 1 cup water
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons fresh basil leaves, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest

Instructions
 

  • In a medium saucepan, combine the water and sugar. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar is completely dissolved. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
  • Pour the sugar mixture into a blender. Add the lemon juice, chopped basil, and lemon zest. Blend until the basil is finely chopped and well combined.
  • Pour the mixture into a shallow dish and place in the freezer. Every 30 minutes, stir the mixture with a fork to break up any ice crystals. This will take about 2-3 hours until it reaches a sorbet consistency.
  • Once the sorbet has a smooth, frozen consistency, scoop into serving bowls or glasses. Garnish with additional basil leaves if desired, and serve immediately.
