Ingredients
 
 

  • 2 yuzu (to extract the following amounts of juice and ground zest)
  • - 1 ½ Tbsp yuzu juice (1½ Tbsp is equivalent to the amount from about 1-2 yuzu)
  • - 0.18 oz  ground yuzu zest (0.18 oz (5g) is equivalent to the amount from about 1 yuzu)
  • 1 cup water
  • cup granulated sugar

Topping:

  • mint leaves

Instructions
 

  • Heat water and sugar in a pot. Once the sugar is completely dissolved in the water, turn off 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 out its juice.
  • Mix the sugar-water solution with the yuzu juice and grated yuzu zest in a sheet pan or similarly wide container. Then, place the pan in the freezer and let it chill for 90 minutes.
  • Take the pan out of the freezer and crush the mixture with a fork or spoon until it becomes smooth. 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 each with mint leaves to taste.

Notes

  • You can store it in the freezer.
