  • My first cooking experience with Meyer lemons was to make a sorbet. Sorbet is perfect any time of the year. It can be served as a dessert at the end of a light lunch or as a palate cleanser in between courses at a dinner party, or to neutralize your palate during a wine tasting. The nice thing about sorbet is that you don’t need a complicated ice cream maker to make it. Total time to make it is about 2 hours, but the active cooking time is relatively low.

Ingredients

  • 1 3/4 cup water
  • 2 cups sugar
  • 2 cups freshly squeezed Meyer lemon juice
  • 1-2 tablespoons freshly grated Meyer lemon zest
