Lemon Syllabub

Serves 6

Cooks Tip – knobby skinned lemons are easier to grate.

Microwave Tip – Warm the lemon on Full Power in a microwave for 20 seconds. This will help extract more juice.

Recipe

  1. Thinly peel the lemon and squeeze out the juice.
  2. Place the wine, lemon juice, rind, and sugar into a small saucepan.
  3. Heat gently for 3-4 minutes. Cool and leave to infuse for 3 hours.
  4. Strain the mixture into a bowl and add the double cream.
  5. Whisk with an electric mixer until the mixture is thick and just holds its shape.
  6. Pour into 4 cocktail glasses or 8 espresso cups.
  7. Decorate with lemon zest, fresh raspberries and a sprig of mint.
