Ingredients

• 1 cup Granulated sugar
• 1 cup Water
• 1 large Fresh rosemary sprig
• 0.75 cup Lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon Lemon zest
• 1 teaspoon Vodka (optional, for texture)

Directions

Step 1

In a small saucepan, combine the granulated sugar and water. Heat over medium heat, stirring, until the sugar completely dissolves to create a simple syrup. This should take about 3-5 minutes.

Step 2

Add the rosemary sprig to the saucepan and remove it from heat. Let the rosemary steep in the simple syrup for 15 minutes to infuse its flavor.

Step 3

Remove the rosemary sprig and discard it. Allow the rosemary-infused simple syrup to cool completely.

Step 4

In a mixing bowl, combine the cooled simple syrup, lemon juice, lemon zest, and vodka (if using). Stir well to mix.

Step 5

Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions, usually about 20-25 minutes.

Step 6

Once the sorbet reaches a smooth, scoopable consistency, transfer it to an airtight container and freeze for at least 2 hours to firm up.

Step 7

Serve the sorbet in chilled bowls or glasses and garnish with a small rosemary sprig or lemon slice for a decorative touch.
