Serves 6

Ingredients

Fresh mint leaves
1/4 cup, for garnish
Water
1/2 cup
Granulated sugar
3/4 cup, adjust to taste
Fresh lime juice
1/4 cup, freshly squeezed
Ripe mangoes
4 cups, diced (about 3 large mangoes)

Instructions

  1. Begin by peeling and dicing the ripe mangoes. You should have about 4 cups of diced mango.
  2. In a blender, combine the diced mangoes, fresh lime juice, granulated sugar, and water.
  3. Blend the mixture on high speed until smooth and well combined. Taste the mixture and adjust the sweetness by adding more sugar if needed.
  4. Pour the blended mixture into an ice cream maker. Churn according to the manufacturer's instructions until the sorbet reaches a soft-serve consistency, usually about 20-25 minutes.
  5. Transfer the sorbet to a lidded container and freeze for at least 4 hours, or until it is firm.
  6. To serve, scoop the mango and lime sorbet into bowls or cones. Garnish with fresh mint leaves for an added touch of elegance and flavor.

Tips

  • 💡 For a creamier texture, consider adding a splash of coconut milk during blending.
  • 💡 You can substitute lime juice with lemon juice for a different citrus twist.
  • 💡 If you don’t have an ice cream maker, pour the mixture into a shallow dish and freeze. Stir every 30 minutes for the first 2 hours to break up ice crystals.
