Lemon Water Ice

For Lemon Water Ice:

• 2 cups sugar
• 2 cups water
• 1 cup fresh lemon juice
• zest from 2 lemons

Combine water and sugar and heat until sugar is dissolved to make a simple syrup. Let cool to room temperature, then add the lemon juice and zest. Chill and then process in an ice cream maker.

While this is pretty simple to make in an ice cream maker, if you don’t have one you can place it in the freezer and stir every half hour or so until it becomes slushy. Tasty even outside of cocktails.
