Greetings, comrade. This quasirevolutionary sorbetto is so bone-chillingly good that there'll never need to be another cold war. It's one of the flavors we were developing for our "Dictators of Cool" collection, which included our
Ingredients
- 2/3 cup water
- 3/4 cup superfine or granulated sugar
- 2/3 cup tonic water
- 3/4 tablespoon gin
- zest and juice of 1 lime, plus extra to decorate
- juice of 1/2 lemon
Instructions
- Pour the water into a saucepan and add the sugar. Place over low heat and bring to a boil, whisking often, until the sugar dissolves. Reduce the heat and let simmer for 5 minutes, continuing to whisk until the liquid turns into a syrup.
- Pour the syrup into a heatproof bowl and set aside for about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until cooled to room temperature. For more rapid chilling, fill a sink halfway with cold water and ice and place the bowl of mixture in it for 20 minutes. Pour the tonic water into a bowl, add the sugar syrup, then cover and refrigerate, ideally overnight, until thoroughly chilled (at least 40 °F).
- Add the gin, lime juice, and lemon juice to the chilled mixture, then pour into an ice cream machine and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions.
- When the churning is completed, use a spoon or spatula to scrape the sorbetto into a freezer-proof container with a lid. Freeze until it reaches the correct scooping texture (at least 2-3 hours).
- Decorate each portion with lime slices and serve.
