FROZEN TOLSTOY
Based on a “martini” type cocktail, this refreshing drink combines citrus and
mint. Omit the vodka for a refreshing sorbet.
Preparation: 10 minutes or less, plus about 20 minutes chilling time.
Makes six servings.
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup water
Zest of 1 lemon
Zest of 1 lime
1-3/4 cups chilled white or golden grapefruit juice
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
mint leaves, finely chopped
2/3 cup chilled vodka
Thin lime or lime slices and fresh mint leaves for garnish
Combine the sugar and water in a 1-1/2 quart saucepan and bring to a boil
over medium heat. Cook without stirring until the sugar is completely dis-
solved, about 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from heat and add the lemon and lime
zests; allow zest to remain in hot syrup for 5 minutes (longer if you prefer a
more pronounced citrus flavor); strain and discard zest. Cool syrup com-
pletely.
Combine the cooled syrup with the juices and mint leaves. Turn machine
ON. Pour the juice mixture into the freezer bowl and mix until thickened,
about 20 minutes. Add chilled vodka during the last 2 to 3 minutes of mixing.
Serve immediately in stemmed glasses with straws, or freeze until ready to
serve. Garnish with a thin slice of lemon or lime and a fresh mint leaf.
