Basil and Lime Sorbet

Summer is here and the leaving certificate begins today means that for the next few weeks it should be fantastic so in the hopes of the good weather the exams bring why not have something light refreshing and tasty?!

This is just a combination of some of my favourite things – love basil use it all the time, even when it isn’t necessary and limes – the colour, the smell, the taste – how could you not love them?
