A refreshing and fruity sorbet made with ripe mangoes and strawberries, perfect for hot summer days.
Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 2 cups Ripe mango, frozen or fresh, peeled and cubed (If using fresh, freeze before blending.)
- 2 cups Strawberries, frozen or fresh, tops removed (If using fresh, freeze before blending.)
- 1-2 tablespoons Lime juice (Adjust to taste.)
- 1-3 tablespoons Sweetener (honey, maple syrup, or simple syrup) (Amount depends on fruit sweetness.)
- 1 pinch Salt (Enhances fruit flavors.)
- 1 tablespoon Water or orange juice (Add if blender needs help moving.)
Instructions
Preparation of Fruit
- If using fresh mango and strawberries, chop them and freeze on a tray for 3 to 4 hours, or overnight.
Blending Ingredients
- Add frozen mango and strawberries to your blender.
- Add lime juice, a pinch of salt, and sweetener to the blender.
- Blend until smooth.
Adjusting Consistency and Taste
- Pause and scrape down the sides of the blender as needed.
- If the mixture is too thick, add water or orange juice one tablespoon at a time.
- Taste the mixture and adjust sweetness or lime juice if needed.
Freezing the Sorbet
- Spread the blended sorbet into a container, cover, and freeze for 2 to 3 hours until scoopable.
- If it freezes very hard, let it sit on the counter for 5 to 10 minutes before scooping.
Notes
Press parchment paper on the surface of the sorbet to reduce icy crystals. It can be stored for up to 2 weeks, but best enjoyed within the first few days for optimal texture.
