Ingredients
2 cups fresh lemon juice (about 6 lemons)

- Pour the mixture into your Ninja Creami container.

- Blend using the Sorbet option. Once the cycle is complete, open the lid and add the 3 shots of water and run a re-spin cycle until you obtain a creamy texture.
- Serve in bowls or cones.
Notes
- For a touch of whimsy, you can add a drop of limoncello to the mixture
- Adjust the sweetness and acidity by changing the amounts of sugar and lemon juice. Sweeten with your preferred sweetener: brown sugar, agave syrup, maple syrup, artificial sweetener…
- If you prefer a smoother texture, strain the lemon mixture before churning it to remove the pulp and zest.
- Garnish with fresh mint leaves or lemon zest before serving for an extra touch of elegance.
- Since we all have different taste preferences, some prefer sweeter ice cream while others enjoy it less sweet. To ensure your ice cream is to your liking, don't hesitate to taste your mixture before placing it in the freezer with your Ninja Creami. This way, you can adjust the ingredients to achieve the perfect flavor for your taste buds.
