Lemon Italian Ice

Lemon Italian Ice
What a way to cool off on a hot summer day!

Serves 6

• 4 lemons, juiced thoroughly (Do not substitute lemon concentrate as it does not give the same taste result.)
• 1 cup sugar
• 1 tablespoon lemon rind, grated (optional).
• Ice Cubes

Use a high powered blender, if you use a regular blender, be sure to add the ice cubes one at a time.

Put your lemon juice and sugar in the blender container. Blend until sugar is dissolved.

While blender is running, add ice cubes until the mixture turns to a slush and it cannot be blended anymore. It may take several times of stopping and allowing the mixture to settle or stirring it and then blending again. Just be sure the mixture is thick and slushy.

You may want to adjust the taste with more sugar or lemon to your liking.

Put mixture into individual freezer containers and place in the freezer for at least four hours.
