Raspberry Sorbet

Ingredients:

• 2 cups fresh raspberries
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1/2 cup water
• 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice

Instructions:

1. Place the raspberries, sugar, and water in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring frequently, until the sugar has dissolved and the mixture is hot and bubbly.
2. Remove from heat and stir in the lemon juice. Allow to cool to room temperature.
3. Puree the raspberry mixture in a blender until smooth. Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a large bowl, pressing on the solids to extract as much liquid as possible.
4. Cover and chill the mixture in the refrigerator or freezer until it is very cold, at least 2-3 hours.
5. Pour the chilled mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions until the sorbet is thick and frozen.
6. Transfer the sorbet to a freezer-safe container and freeze for a few hours to allow it to firm up.

Serving Suggestions:

Serve the raspberry sorbet in chilled bowls or glasses, garnished with fresh raspberries and a sprig of mint, if desired.

Verdict:

This raspberry sorbet is a perfect dessert for a warm summer day. The combination of sweet raspberries and tart lemon creates a refreshing and satisfying treat. Plus, it’s so easy to make! You can enjoy it on its own or pair it with a slice of your favorite cake.
