Mango-Lime Sorbet
Recipe By : Epi recipe swap/Cook's Illustrated, Aug-Sep'96
Serving Size : 12
Categories : Desserts, Fruit,
Tried & True
Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
1 3/4 Cups Sugar
1 3/4 Cups Water
4 Medium Mangos, Very Ripe,Peeled, Pitted -- pureed
(2 Cups Of Puree Needed)
2 Tablespoons Tequila Or Vodka
1/2 Cup Fresh Lime Juice
2 Teaspoons Lime Zest -- freshly grated
In a saucepan, combine the sugar and water over high heat. Stir occasionally until the sugar is completely dissolved and the syrup is simmering, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat. You should have a little more than 2 1/2 cups.
Combine 2 1/2 cups warm syrup with the mango puree, tequila or vodka, lime juice and lime zest. Let the mixture cool to room temperature. For faster freezing, chill the mixture in the refrigerator.
Freeze the mixture in an ice cream maker, according to manufacturer's instructions.

Serving Ideas : Great after spicy food, or as a light dessert.
NOTES : I used tequila, and the flavor was wonderful. Be careful not to exceed the amount of alcohol called for, or the mixture will not freeze. (Would make a nice slushy drink, however.)
The mangos I found were large, and I only needed three to get 2 cups of puree.
