Instructions

Prepare the Ingredients:
- Ensure your mango and strawberries are fully frozen before blending.
-
Blend the Sorbet Base:
- In a food processor or high-speed blender, combine frozen mango, frozen strawberries, ½ cup water, and honey.
- Blend on high speed until smooth and creamy. Scrape down the sides as needed.
- If the mixture is too thick to blend, add more water gradually.
-
Taste and Adjust:
- Sample the mixture and adjust sweetness if needed. Add lemon/lime juice or vanilla extract for extra flavor.
-
Freeze the Sorbet:
- Transfer the blended sorbet to a freezer-safe container.
- Smooth the top with a spatula and cover tightly with plastic wrap to prevent ice crystals.
- Freeze for at least 1 hour before serving.
-
Serve and Enjoy:
- Scoop the sorbet into bowls or cones.
- Garnish with fresh mint leaves, lime zest, or extra fruit for added freshness.
- Serve immediately for the best texture!
Notes
- For a softer texture: Let the sorbet sit at room temperature for 5 minutes before scooping.
- For extra creaminess: Add ½ banana or 2 tablespoons coconut milk while blending.
- Storage: Keep in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 weeks.
