Instructions
Working time approx. 15 minutes; Rest time approx. 50 minutes; Total time approx. 1 hour 5 minutes
quick, refreshing, summer dessert
Bring the zest of 1.5 lemons (best peeled with a vegetable peeler) to a boil with the water and sugar, then simmer for 5 to 10 minutes, until the zest has turned a nice yellow color. Remove the zest and then let everything cool slightly. Grate the zest of the remaining lemon half and set aside. Finely chop the mint and mix with the lemon juice of both lemons, the lemon zest, and the water, sugar, and lemon syrup. Finally, whisk in the Greek yogurt. Pour the mixture into the ice cream maker (for about 50 minutes). Strawberry sauce goes best with this (bring strawberries to a boil with a little sugar, deglaze with white wine, and puree with water, adjusting the amount to achieve the desired consistency). Basil can also be used instead of mint for a fresh, tasty alternative.
