Ingredients

  • 16 oz fresh strawberries, hulled and halved
  • 1 pint fresh blueberries
  • 6 oz fresh raspberries
  • 1 cup (240g) organic cane sugar
  • 2 teaspoons lemon juice
  • ½ teaspoon salt

Instructions

Fresh Fruit Method

  • Place berries in the bowl of a food processor and puree until smooth. Add sugar and blend. Then add lemon juice and salt to fruit puree and blend to incorporate.
  • Strain puree with a fine sieve and then transfer liquid into two ice cube trays. Freeze for at least 3 hours until frozen.
  • Once frozen, place sorbet cubes the bowl of the food processor and blend until smooth. If needed, add 1-3 tablespoons water to help with the blending, stopping occasionally to wipe down the sides of the bowl.
  • Transfer to airtight container and return to freezer to firm up more until ready to serve.
  • When ready to serve, take sorbet out the freezer 5 minutes prior to allow it to soften for easier scooping.

Frozen Fruit Method

  • Place frozen fruit into the bowl of a food processor and blend until smooth. Add sugar, lemon juice, and salt and blend to incorporate.
  • Transfer mixture to serving bowls or into an airtight container and store in the freezer.

Notes

To store: Keep in a freezer-safe airtight container for up to one month.
  • 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 the sorbet from developing a freezer burn.
