Directions:

TO DECORATE
Mint leaves and flowers

This is the perfect dessert for a summer's day. Use a combination of
spearmint, apple mint and eau-de-cologne mint for the best flavour.

Dissolve the sugar in the water, then boil for 3-4 minutes to make a light
syrup. Put in the mint leaves and flowers and liquidize until smooth.

Cool, then strain. Add the lemon juice and stir in the cream. Mix well
together, whisking gently. Add a drop or two of food colouring if
necessary.

Pour into an ice tray and freeze until mushy. Beat well, then freeze until
hard.

Serve in tall glasses, decorated with sprigs of mint leaves and lots of
fresh mint flowers.
