Ingredients
Ingredients
- 16 oz (approx. 3 cups) fresh or frozen strawberries
- 2 tablespoons raw honey, adjust as needed for sweetness
- ¼ cup warm water, as needed to loosen mixture
Instructions
- Freeze Strawberries: If using fresh strawberries, freeze them until they are completely solid, typically 1-2 hours, or preferably overnight for best texture.
- Blend Strawberries: Place the frozen strawberries in a food processor or heavy-duty blender and blend until smooth, scraping down the sides as needed.
- Loosen Mixture: Add warm water a little at a time and press mixture with a spatula to help it blend more easily until you reach a smooth consistency.
- Sweeten: Taste the sorbet and add raw honey as needed to achieve desired sweetness. Blend briefly to incorporate honey.
- Serve or Freeze: Enjoy immediately for a soft-serve texture or transfer sorbet to a freezer-safe container and freeze for 1-2 hours until firm for a more traditional sorbet texture.
- Optional Serving Tip: Let sorbet sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes before serving if frozen, stirring to recombine liquid and solids for a smooth consistency.
Notes
- This strawberry sorbet is a deliciously simple treat and can be combined with other flavors like frozen bananas, mixed berries, fresh mint, or lime juice for variety.
- For easier serving, soften the sorbet slightly at room temperature before stirring and serving.
- Try portioning the sorbet mixture into reusable tubes for kid-friendly frozen ice pops.
