Refreshing and super easy to make, this Gin and Tonic Sorbet recipe is ideal to enjoy as a grownup treat during the heat of summer, or any time of the year.

Gin and Tonic Sorbet recipe, yes, it’s a thing!

I love the simplicity of a Gin and Tonic, or as many refer to it, a G and T. It’s one of those drinks that remind me of sunny days, with a clean, crisp edge to it.

For this recipe, you get all of that flavor, from the tonic water to the lemony lime goodness. Made using an ice cream freezer, or you can make it as a no-churn frozen recipe. Either way, it’s just as simple to make as the classic G and T drink, but as a frozen variation of course.

What You’ll Need:

• Sugar
• Water
• Tonic water
• Dry gin
• Limes
• Lemons
• Egg white

How to Make this Gin and Tonic Sorbet Frozen Treat:

Step One:

• First, you’ll make a sugar syrup by combining the sugar and water then bringing it to a gentle boil for a few minutes until the sugar is dissolved. Set aside to cool.

Step Two:

• Once the sugar syrup has cooled, add in the tonic water, gin, and citrus zest and juice, mixing well.

Step Three:

• Whip the egg white until soft peaks form, and gently fold into the sorbet mixture.

Step Four:

• Pour the sorbet mixture into an ice cream freezer and freeze according to manufacturers instructions, about 40 – 60 minutes.
• If using the no-churn method, pour into a freezer-proof container (such as a loaf pan), cover with plastic wrap, and freeze for at least 2 hours, stirring to break up ice crystals every 30 – 45 minutes.
• Once either method is complete, transfer the gin and tonic sorbet into container, seal, and continue to freeze at least 2 – 4 hours more for a firmer texture.
