Ingredients:
1 cup sugar
1-3/4 cups water
Juice and grated zest of 1 lemon
2 pints ripe berries, puréed
1/4 cup Chambord or other fruit liqueur or fruit juice

Makes 5 cups

Bring the sugar, water, lemon juice, and zest to a boil in a medium saucepan over high heat. Reduce the heat and let the syrup boil for 1 min. Let the mixture cool, then add the berry purée and the Chambord or juice. Stir well.

Freeze in a large, shallow pan for 24 hours or overnight. Stir the mixture once or twice during the freezing process if it begins to separate.

To serve, let the mixture sit at room tempera­ture for 10 to 20 min., then scrape with a chilled metal spoon or ice cream scoop into chilled glasses.
