Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. Prepare your ice cream maker by freezing the container for 24-48 hours beforehand.
  2. In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup of water with jasmine tea bags. Bring to a simmer for about 5 minutes.
  3. Add organic cane sugar and sea salt to the brewed jasmine tea while still warm, stirring until dissolved.
  4. Strain the jasmine tea mixture into a bowl, discard the tea bags, and mix in freshly squeezed grapefruit juice and vodka.
  5. Cover and chill the mixture in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes.
  6. Pour the chilled mixture into your ice cream maker and churn for about 20-30 minutes.
  7. Transfer to an airtight container and freeze for 1-2 hours if a firmer texture is desired.
  8. For the no-churn method, pour the mixture into ice cube trays and freeze overnight. Blend the cubes in a processor until smooth.
  9. Serve the sorbet in chilled bowls or glasses, garnished with fresh mint leaves.
