British Columbian Raspberry Lemon Ice
- 1 14 cups sugar
- 2 lemons, zest of, removed with vegetable peeler (not the white part-it's bitter)
- 3 tablespoons red raspberry preserves
- 12 cup fresh lemon juice
- 1 cup fresh raspberry, rinsed
- fresh raspberry, to garnish
- In a medium saucepan, bring 3 cups water, sugar, lemon peel and preserves to a boil.
- Reduce the heat, and simmer 5 minutes.
- Refrigerate until cool, about 30 minutes.
- Stir in the lemon juice.
- Pour through a strainer(I skip straining it, I don't mind the seeds) into 8" or 9" square metal pan.
- Discard peel.
- Press raspberries through strainer with the back of a spoon to get a seedless puree(or not, if you don't mind the seeds).
- Scrape puree from the outside of strainer into pan.
- Stir puree into the lemon raspberry preserve mixture until blended.
- Place in freezer.
- When the mix starts to freeze, about 45 minutes, scrape frozen sides into the center of pan with fork.
- Repeat every 20 minutes for about 2 hours(don't worry if you forget to do this once or twice!).
- Next, cover the pan with foil, and freeze for at least 8 hours, or until firm.
- Place the pan in the fridge about 20 minutes before serving to thaw it out a bit.
- To serve, mound the ice into individual dishes, and garnish with raspberries.
- Enjoy!
