Citrus, Ginger and Green Tea Sorbet

Citrus, Ginger and Green Tea Sorbet
King County, Washington

(makes 6 servings)

Ingredients:

  • 2 tablespoons fresh ginger, chopped
  • 3/4 cup water
  • 1 green tea bag
  • 1 cup fresh squeezed orange juice
  • 1/2 cup fresh squeezed lemon juice
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • Snipped fresh mint for garnish (optional)

Directions:

  1. In a small saucepan, add the ginger and water. Bring to boil over medium heat then turn off. Add tea bag and allow to steep for 2-3 minutes. Using a fine mesh sieve or colander, strain the liquid into a freezer-safe medium sized bowl (non-metallic) and discard the solids. Let cool for 30 minutes.
  2. Stir in the orange and lemon juices, water and honey and mix thoroughly. Cover and freeze for about 3-4 hours. Using a wooden spoon, break the semi-solid mixture into chunks. Pour the mixture into a mixing bowl and beat with an electric mixer until smooth. Pour back mixture into freezer bowl, cover and chill for 2 hours before serving.
  3. Use an ice-cream scoop to serve the sorbet topped with fresh mint.
