I make this very often and each time it's fantastic, and soooo easy and quick to make, waiting for it to chill is the hard bit!
I tried this recipe and it is really nice, the second time i tried it with oranges instead of lemons (i did add 2 teaspoons of orange extract as well to the ingredients) Really nice option....
Absolutely delicious
