Pucker-Up Lemon Ice

Preparation time: 20 minutes

Chill time: 8 hours or overnight

Yield: 40 servings

1/2 cup lemon zest

3-1/2 cups lemon juice

8 cups sugar

1 gallon milk

1. In an extra-large bowl, stir together the lemon zest, lemon juice, and sugar until smooth.

2. Stir in the milk until completely blended.

3. Pour the mixture into the canister of an ice-cream maker and freeze it according to the manufacturer's directions. If you don't have an ice-cream maker, you can simply pour the mixture into a couple of large casserole pans, cover them, and place them in your freezer until frozen, about 8 hours or overnight.

4. Allow the dessert to set at room temperature for 5 minutes before serving. This refreshing dessert can be served the same way you serve ice cream.

Note: Eight 8 cups of sugar sounds excessive, but reducing the amount changes the consistency of the dessert. Instead of having a slightly creamy texture, it'll be grainy. The sweetness offsets the tartness of the lemons.
