Ingredients
 

  • 6 nectarines
  • 150 ml chamomile tea
  • 150 g caster sugar super fine sugar
  • 1/2 tsp lemon juice

Instructions
 

  • Make the chamomile tea first so you have it ready for the next step. I used 2 tea bags.
  • Slice and stone/pit the nectarines, there is no need to faff about peeling them.
  • Cook them in the tea (remove the tea bags first) for about ten minutes or until soft.
  • Now add the sugar and stir well until dissolved.
  • Set aside to cook completely before you blitz everything in your food processor or push through a metal sieve.
  • Stir in the fresh lemon juice until well mixed.
  • Pour into an icecream maker or just pop into the freezer and break up the crystals and give it a stir every hour or so.

Notes

You can use fresh chamomile flowers if you have them, or loose-leaf chamomile tea. Make sure to strain out solids before cooking the nectarines though.
This sorbet will keep for 3 months in the freezer
