Ingredients
Ingredients
- 16 oz (approx. 3 cups) fresh or frozen strawberries
- 2 tablespoons raw honey, as needed for sweetness
- ¼ cup warm water, as needed to loosen
Instructions
- Freeze the Strawberries: If using fresh strawberries, place them in the freezer until completely solid. This process typically takes 1-2 hours, but freezing overnight is recommended for best results.
- Blend the Strawberries: Transfer the frozen strawberries to the bowl of a food processor or a heavy-duty blender and blend until smooth. This may require stopping and scraping down the sides to ensure even blending.
- Adjust Texture: Add the warm water gradually and press with a spatula to help blend the mixture to a creamy consistency.
- Sweeten the Sorbet: Taste the puree and add raw honey as needed to achieve your desired sweetness, then blend briefly to combine.
- Serve or Freeze: Eat the sorbet immediately if you prefer a soft-serve texture, or transfer it into a freezer-safe container and freeze for 1-2 hours until firm for a more traditional sorbet consistency.
Notes
- This strawberry sorbet is a delicious and simple cold treat perfect for cravings.
- You can customize the flavor by adding frozen bananas, other berries, fresh mint, or lime juice for variety.
- Allow the sorbet to soften at room temperature for 5-10 minutes before stirring to mix any separated liquid back into the frozen mixture.
- For a kid-friendly option, pour the mixture into reusable tubes to make homemade ice pops.
