I just made it and realized that I might want to invest in some kind of juicing devise before I make it again. Just adding some tequila to the sorbet makes an EXCELLENT margarita too.

It carries essential oils that supercharge the flavor of the sorbet. Use a micro-plane zesting tool or the finest setting on your box grater and just take off the colored layer, don't grate into the white pith. Pith is bitter and will not be good in your sorbet!

Sucrose (regular sugar) is suppose to start crystallising once frozen, but glucose doesn't crystallise. I have some glucose and hundreds of limes on our tree to test this theory - too bad it's winter and far from sorbet weather.
