Steep Echo Sorbet — Repose
Steep Echo teas take your sorbet to a new level. Instead of using water to create the base, I brew tea and create the syrup base from the reduction. Easy — but taste is fresh and refined.
4 cups of water
3 Steep Echo Repose sachets
1 cup sugar
Lemon zest (two lemons)
3/4 to 1 cup of lemon juice
In a medium saucepan, boil the water and add the sachets to steep for 10 minutes. Remove sachets, add lemon zest and sugar. Bring to a boil and then simmer for 10 minutes to reduce the mixture. Add lemon juice. I like tart over sweet so I would add 1 cup of lemon juice. If you would like a sweeter version — reduce to 3/4 cup. Process in ice cream maker. Garnish with mint leaves or rose petals.
