Pomegranate Sorbet
Description
The Pomegranate Sorbet recipe uses pure pomegranate juice sweetened with sugar to create a simple, vibrant dessert. After dissolving the sugar, the juice is frozen solid in a flat zip-lock bag to create a thin block of ice. Breaking the frozen juice into chunks before processing helps achieve a smooth texture. Once pureed, the sorbet is set in the freezer to firm up into a scoopable frozen treat. The sorbet highlights the natural tanginess of pomegranate with a clean, icy consistency.
This sorbet can be served as a palate cleanser or a light dessert, especially nice after rich meals or on warm days. Its straightforward ingredients make it suitable for those looking for a fresh fruit-based frozen dessert without cream or eggs.
Ingredients
- 2 cups pomegranate juice Pom brand
- 2/3 cup sugar
Instructions
- Dissolve the sugar into the juice, stirring well until all the sugar crystals have dissolved completely.
- Pour the juice into a gallon sized zip lock baggie. Zip it up tight.
- Put the baggie of juice flat on a baking sheet or platter in the freezer. Freeze until solid. This will take at least a couple of hours.
- Cut open the baggie and quickly cut or break the frozen juice into chunks and put into the bowl of a food processor or strong blender. Process until smooth. You will have to stop to rearrange the chunks of frozen juice a few times.
- When the sorbet is smooth, spread it in a metal loaf pan. Cover with foil and put back in the freezer until firmed up.
