Method

  1. 1

    Chill. Mix persimmons with sugar in a blender or food processor. Blend on high speed till very smooth, around 30 seconds. Strain mixture; measure out of pur (2 cups)ée, and reserve remainder for another use using a fine-mesh sieve. Beat persimmon pur (2 cups)ée, tea, and lemon juice to mix in a mid-sized bowl. Taste and add salt if it needs it with salt. Chill in freezer till mixture is very cold, 2 to 3 hours. Churn persimmon mixture in ice cream maker according in order to manufacturer's instructions once chilled. Eat at once as soft serve or move to an airtight container plus put in the fridge in freezer for a period of 4 hours for a firmer texture.
