mmmm blueberry sorbet!

Blueberry Sorbet:

2 1/2 cups blueberries
1/2 cup boiling water
1 cup sugar
2 tb lemon juice
1 tb vodka

Puree the blueberries with the water until smooth.
This should make 2 cups.
Combine the blueberry mixture with remaining ingredients in a large bowl.
Stir for several minutes until the sugar has dissolved.

Pour the mixture into small, preferably glass, bowl and refrigerate until mixture is no more than 40F.
Pour chilled mixture into container of ice cream machine and churn until frozen.

You can also put the mixture into a glass baking pan and stick it into the freezer. You'll have to stir it about once an hour or so, and it will take longer, but not all of us have ice cream makers. (I do, of course)

YUM factor: 37 - I'd give it 50, but that would be pretentious.
