Water melon and absenthium sorbet

The idea came from the fact that water-melons are never cold enough and that absinthe needs to be diluted in water and sugar. Hence the watermelon sorbet, which is nothing but sugar and water. Absinthe is a perfect match and its alcohol grade prevents the sorbet from turning into ice. Pass the watermelon pulp through a Chinese sieve to get the juice. Mix the absinthe with the lemon juice; prepare a sugar and water syrup on the flame. When it is cold add the lemon juice to it. Put in the ice-cream maker for 20 minutes or in the freezer, and stir every now and then. The sorbet may be served with a leaf of Roman mint.
