Ingredients for a Perfect Lemon Basil Sorbet
Before embarking on this frozen adventure, we start with the essentials: the ingredients. It’s all about simplicity, but beware, every detail counts.
- 500 ml water – Because without water, no sorbet!
- 150 g sugar – Sweetness is necessary to balance the acidity of the lemon.
- 2 organic lemons – We will use the juice and the zest. Double dose of freshness!
- 1 handful of fresh basil – For that little herbaceous touch that makes all the difference.
- 1 teaspoon of pink peppercorns – It’s what will surprise everyone with its little spicy kick.
