- Strain and press or blend as suitable for the fruit; dissolve sugar while warm, then add lime juice.
- Rapidly chill the mixture in a shallow container.
- For this original vanilla adaptation, add 3 ml pure vanilla extract to the prepared base and stir or blend until evenly dispersed; if it is a spice or chopped solid, hydrate, infuse or melt it in the warm phase, then strain if necessary.
