Healthy Snow Lemon Sorbet

With the insane amount of snow, we've been eating a lot of snow "ice cream", so I wanted to look for a healthier alternative.  I thought this "snow sorbet" turned out quite well, and it's ready in minutes,.  What could be better?

Ingredients:

  • 1 large bowl of fresh snow
  • 1/4 c. lemon juice
  • 1/4 c. cold water
  • 4 packets stevia
  • 1-2 tbs. sugar (optional)

Directions:

  1. Combine lemon juice, water, stevia, and sugar (if using) until stevia and sugar are dissolved.  I used a shaker bottle that I usually use for a protein shake and it worked really well.
  2. Collect a bowl of fresh snow.
  3. Add lemon juice mixture to the snow a little at a time, stirring until you reach the right consistency.  If it gets too soupy, add more snow.
  4. Eat immediately, snow sorbet does not keep!

Note: if the sorbet is too tart, add more water or stevia/sugar.
