  • Prep Time: 5 minutes
  • Total Time: 1 hour
  • Yield: About 7 cups sorbet, serving 4 to 6

Ingredients

  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 teaspoon lime zest
  • 8 cups watermelon chunks, seeds removed (about 1-inch pieces)

Directions

  • Combine sugar, water, and lime zest in a small saucepan over high heat. Bring mixture to a boil, stirring constantly. Boil for 2 to 3 minutes or until sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat and cool completely. Strain syrup through a wire-mesh strainer, discarding the zest.
