Fresh Orange Basil Sorbet

Ingredients:
sugars, granulated
water, bottled, generic
spices, basil, dried
orange juice, raw

Directions:
In a saucepan, combine sugar, water and basil.
Simmer until sugar is dissolved, about 10 minutes.
Strain the syrup, and chill in refrigerator for 1 hour.
Mix in orange juice, and strain the mixture.
If using ice cream maker, process mixture according to manufacturers instructions.
Transfer to an airtight container, cover and freeze until firm, at least 4 hours.
If not using ice cream maker, pour mixture into a shallow nonstick banking pan.
Freeze until frozen, about 2 hours.

If it starts to melt, put it back in the freezer for 5 minutes.
Immediately scoop sorbet and serve.
