When the temperature starts to go up, many people turn to ice cream to cool off. While this can be refreshing, why not take advantage of all the fresh, tangy and delicious flavors that are only available in the summer months with a fresh fruit sorbet. There are a huge variety of Sorbet Flavors available, simply by mixing various types of fresh fruit and berries.
Sorbet is a type of frozen dessert that is made from fresh fruit and frozen sugar water. It is a naturally fat-free food and provides you with all of the benefits of eating fresh fruit, including a healthy dose of antioxidants, minerals and vitamins.
If you want to make your own variety of fresh fruit sorbet, the recipe you can use is fairly simple:
- One part sugar
- Two parts water
- Four parts fruit
There are a number of recipes that also suggest adding a small amount of lime or lemon juice to give it that extra flavor. You can add, or not add this, according to your personal preferences.
Once you have gathered your ingredients all you have to do is create a syrup by dissolving the sugar into the water by heating it in a saucepan. Once all the sugar is dissolved you will place the syrup and your cut fruit into a food processor and puree until it is completely smooth.
Once you have created your mixture you can send it through an ice cream machine, or simply stick it in the freezer for approximately 90 minutes. Before you know it you will have a smooth and delicious fresh fruit treat to enjoy on a hot summer day.
The flavors that you can enjoy when it comes to sorbet are only limited by your imagination. You can use all types of fresh fruits, such as cherries, peaches, mangoes, blackberries, raspberries, strawberries, blueberries and more. You should not limit yourself to only one single fruit, as you can combine them to make something that is completely unique.
No matter what fruit combinations you choose, there are very few people that do not love the refreshing taste of a fresh fruit sorbet on a hot summer day. If you don’t feel like going through the hassle to make your own, you can simply purchase pre-made options from a local shop.
