Recipe Yield: 6 servings

INGREDIENTS

1 lb fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
⅓ cup honey
3 Tbsp fresh lemon juice

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Freeze the strawberries:
Arrange the sliced strawberries in a single layer on a baking sheet or plate. Freeze for at least 4 hours, or until completely firm.

2. Let the berries soften slightly:
Remove the strawberries from the freezer and let them sit at room temperature for 5 minutes. This helps them blend more easily.

3. Blend until creamy:
Add the frozen strawberries, honey, and lemon juice to a food processor. Blend until smooth and creamy, stopping occasionally to scrape down the sides.

4. Freeze until scoopable:
Transfer the mixture to a freezer-safe container. Cover and freeze for 1–2 hours, or until firm enough to scoop.

5. Serve and enjoy:
Let the sorbet stand at room temperature for about 5 min before serving. Scoop into bowls and enjoy.

Helpful Tips to Perfect This Recipe

• Use fully ripe strawberries for the sweetest flavor.
Naturally sweet berries create the best strawberry lemonade sorbet and require no additional ingredients.

• Allow the berries to soften slightly before blending.
Five minutes at room temperature helps the food processor create a smoother texture.

• Don’t skip the final freeze.
An extra hour or two in the freezer gives the sorbet a beautiful scoopable consistency.
