I was so excited to try this lemon gelato, but I was disappointed. The flavor was bland and the texture was icy. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

This gelato was really good, but it was a bit too tart for my taste. Next time, I'll add a little more sugar.

The gelato was a bit icy, but the flavor was good. I think I might have over churned it.

This lemon gelato was absolutely delicious! The perfect balance of tart and sweet, and the texture was smooth and creamy. I used a little less sugar than the recipe called for, and it was still plenty sweet. Will definitely be making this again!
