How to Make Mango Strawberry Sorbet

Ingredients

• 2 ripe mangoes, peeled and diced (about 2 cups)
• 2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
• 1 cup sugar (adjust based on sweetness preference)
• 1/2 cup water
• 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice (optional, for added brightness)

Directions

1. Peel and dice the mangoes into small pieces and hull and slice the strawberries.
2. In a blender or food processor, combine the mangoes, strawberries, sugar, water, and lime juice (if using). Blend until smooth and creamy.
3. Taste the mixture and adjust the sweetness or lime juice as needed, then blend again briefly.
4. Pour the mixture into a shallow freezer-safe dish, cover it airtight, and freeze for 4-6 hours or until solid. Stir every couple of hours to break ice crystals for the best texture.

How to Serve Mango Strawberry Sorbet

Serve the mango strawberry sorbet in bowls or cups, garnished with a few slices of fresh fruit or mint leaves for a lovely presentation. You can also scoop it into cones for a fun dessert. It’s great on its own or as a topping on a slice of cake or tart.

How to Store Mango Strawberry Sorbet

To keep your mango strawberry sorbet fresh, store it in an airtight container in the freezer. Make sure to press a piece of plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the sorbet before sealing the container. This helps prevent ice crystals from forming and keeps your sorbet smooth.

Tips to Make Mango Strawberry Sorbet

• Choose ripe mangoes and strawberries for the best flavor.

Variation

You can easily change up the flavor by using other fruits. Try adding bananas, peaches, or even berries for a different taste. You can also mix in herbs like mint or basil to add a unique twist.
