Whip the cream and sugar until the mixture just starts to thicken
and falls from the whisk in ribbons. Place the yoghurt in a large
mixing bowl. Add the sweetened cream and gently blend the two. Stir
the lemon myrtle into the hot water to infuse. Soften the gelatine
in the same water until it is completely dissolved. Add a tablespoon
of the yoghurt cream mixture to the gelatine and whisk through.
