Raspberry Sorbet
Description
Raspberry Sorbet is made by blending fresh raspberries with water, then straining the mixture to eliminate seeds, resulting in a smooth berry base. Sugar and vanilla are added to the juice alongside fresh lime juice, which highlights the raspberry's natural tart flavor. The mixture is then frozen using an ice cream maker, producing a creamy yet dairy-free frozen dessert. It can be enjoyed soft-serve right after churning or frozen further to achieve a firmer texture suitable for scooping.
This sorbet offers a bright and clean fruit flavor with a balance of sweetness and acidity, making it a refreshing choice during warm weather or as a palate cleanser. The use of fresh raspberries gives it a vivid color and authentic berry taste.
For storage, keep the sorbet in an airtight container in the freezer for up to one month to preserve freshness and texture. When served immediately post-churning, it is softer and more delicate. Additional freezing time firms it up for those preferring a scoopable consistency.
Ingredients
- ~5 cups raspberries fresh
- 1 cup water
- 1 ½ cups sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1-2 tablespoons lime juice fresh
Instructions
- Add water and raspberries to a food processor. Pulse until mixture has a smooth consistency.
- Place a fine mesh strainer over a large bowl. Add pureed raspberries to the strainer (1/4 at a time) and press with the back of a large spoon or a rubber spatula through the strainer to remove the seeds. Repeat with remaining raspberry puree. Discard anything left in the strainer.
- Add sugar, vanilla, and lime juice to the raspberry juice in the bowl. Whisk until sugar is dissolved.
- Freeze according to your ice cream maker's instructions. Serve immediately for a soft-serve dessert OR transfer to a shallow container and freeze an additional 1-2 hours for a more firm sorbet.
Notes
- Keep the sorbet in an airtight container in the freezer for up to one month to maintain texture and flavor.
