Preparation Steps
1
In a small saucepan, combine the water and sugar. Heat over medium heat, stirring until the sugar is completely dissolved. This creates a simple syrup.
2
Allow the simple syrup to cool to room temperature.
3
Meanwhile, juice the lemons and strain the juice to remove any seeds or pulp.
4
Zest one lemon and add the zest to the lemon juice to enhance the flavor.
5
Combine the lemon juice with the cooled simple syrup until well combined.
6
Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions.
7
If you don't have an ice cream maker, pour the mixture into a shallow dish and place it in the freezer. Every 30 minutes, stir with a fork to prevent large ice crystals from forming. Repeat this process for 3-4 hours.
8
Before serving, let it stand at room temperature for a few minutes to make it easier to scoop.
