Lemon-Lime Gelato

This recipe of Anthony Mangieri (Una Pizza Napoletana) sounded just so refreshing and decadent. It also will make a batch that will fit in my little Cuisinart ice cream maker. I plan to chill the syrup before using. prep time does not include chilling & cook time does not include processing in ice cream maker as this depends on your device.
