Ingredients

  • 3.6 Litres SIMPLE STOCK SYRUP
  • 6 Packets YUZU PEEL - FROZEN

frozen yuzu peel.
If not defrosted - cut the lime puree into 5cm pieces and add to the hot
surup. Stir until all is dissolved. Now finely slice the fresh mint leaves
into thin strips and quickly add to the sorbet mixture before the mint begins
to oxidize ( as thi9s will affect its flavour).
