Deep flavors of earl grey tea are highlighted by tangy lemon juice and then sweetened with raw honey. It is my favorite tea in the form of an icy treat.

Spring is quickly fading away into summer. Now is the perfect time to pull out your ice cream maker if it isn’t out already. My ice cream maker gets frequent use all year round because I love ice cream and sorbets so much! If you don’t have an ice cream maker never fear, Marillyn has a instructions on how to make ice cream without a machine in her gorgeous e-book, Just Making Ice Cream. It’s a true favorite around here.

This simple sorbet was inspired by my love for tea. As much as I enjoy a hot cup of tea with the weather heating up there are times when I want something a bit cooler. This recipe is very versatile, if you don’t want to use earl grey; green tea, chamomile or hibiscus all make wonderful substitutes. So please cool off with this unique twist on the traditional lemon sorbet!
