2 Tablespoons Lime Juice
2 Tablespoons Gin
1 Teaspoon Vanilla Extract

Over medium high heat, stir until the sugar dissolves, then remove from heat and let cool to room temperature.

Comments

If you don't have an ice cream maker, pour it into a metal bowl and place in the freezer. Remove it every 30 minutes and stir it thoroughly to help break it up (you may need to scrape it with a fork as time goes by). Continue doing this for 2 hours. Then it's ready to serve

Servings

Serves 8
