How to Make Lavender Lemon Sorbet
- In a saucepan, combine the sugar and water. Heat over medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves completely. Bring to a simmer and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until a light syrup forms.
- Remove from heat and stir in the lemon zest and dried lavender. Let it steep for at least 30 minutes to infuse the flavors. The longer it steeps, the stronger the lavender flavor will be.
- Strain the syrup through a fine-mesh sieve, pressing on the solids to extract as much liquid as possible. Discard the solids.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the lemon juice and the cooled lavender syrup.
- Pour the mixture into a freezer-safe container. Cover and freeze for 1 hour.
- After 1 hour, remove the sorbet from the freezer and churn with an ice cream maker according to the manufacturer's instructions.
- Once churned, transfer the sorbet to a freezer-safe container and freeze for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow it to harden completely.
- Serve and enjoy your homemade Lavender Lemon Sorbet!
