Notes

RECIPE NOTES & TIPS
  • use freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • we use a higher ratio of lemon juice to water than most recipes... giving you the ultimate lemon flavour
  • the lemon liquid needs to be frozen overnight before being made into sorbet
  • cut large chunks and place them into the Thermomix. Use the spatula through the MC hole to help push the chunks down.
  • serve immediately as the sorbet will begin to melt
  • place any leftover sorbet into a container and freeze for up to 1 month. When you're ready to use it, allow it so sit at room temp for a couple of minutes to soften enough to be able to scoop.
