Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 2 yuzu (to yield the juice and zest amounts below)
- 1 ½ Tbsp yuzu juice (1½ Tbsp is the amount from about 1-2 yuzu)
- 0.2 oz ground yuzu zest (0.18 oz/5 g is the amount from about 1 yuzu)
- 1 cup water
- ⅖ cup granulated sugar
Topping:
- mint leaves
Instructions
- Heat water and sugar in a pot. Once the sugar has completely dissolved, remove the pot from the heat and let it cool.
- Grate only the yuzu zest, being careful not to include the white pith. After grating the required amount of zest, cut the yuzu in half and squeeze the juice into a small bowl.
- Combine the sugar-water mixture with the yuzu juice and grated zest in a shallow container, such as a sheet pan. Place the container in the freezer and let it chill for about 90 minutes.
- Take the container out of the freezer and scrape the mixture with a fork or spoon until it becomes slushy. Return it to the freezer and let it chill for about 30 minutes. Repeat this process a total of three times.
- Serve the mixture in cups and top with mint leaves, if desired.
Notes
- You can store it in the freezer.
