Italian Water Ice - Lemon - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 quart water
2 cups sugar
3/4 cup lemon juice
1 lemon, rind of, grated no white part

Preparation

Boil water and sugar together for 5 minutes.
Cool.
Stir in juice and peel.
Pour into shallow bowl and put in freezer.
As it starts to freeze, keep stirring the outside crystals into the center and mix in peel.
Do about every half hour -MUST DO!.
When real slushy, stop and freeze overnight.
To serve, you must scrape very thin layers of the slush off the top.
I use a big spoon with sharp edges moving it sideways.
