From A Book of Middle Eastern Food by Claudia Roden
Ingredients:
3 3/4 cups water
1 1/4 cups sugar
1 tablespoon orange blossom water
1 1/4 cups lemon juice
Directions:
1. Boil water and sugar together for a few minutes, stirring until the sugar has dissolved.
2. Cool and add orange blossom water and lemon juice.
3. Stir well and pour into a mold or refrigerator trays.
4. Cover with foil and place in the freezing compartment of the refrigerator, set at the lowest setting.
5. As the ice freezes a little, beat lightly with a fork without removing it from the trays to reduce the size of the crystals.
6. Repeat a few times at 1/2-hour intervals.
7. Transfer from the freezer to another part of the refrigerator about 20 minutes before serving.
8. Serve, if you like, in scooped-out lemon halves.
