Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 2 cups fresh strawberries Use very ripe strawberries for the sweetest flavor.
  • 1 cup sugar Can be substituted with unrefined sugar for a vegan option.
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice Add a splash of orange juice for extra flavor if desired.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a saucepan, combine the sugar and water. Bring to a boil and stir until the sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat and let cool.
  2. Puree the strawberries in a blender or food processor. Add the cooled sugar syrup and lemon juice, and blend until smooth.
Freezing
  1. Pour the mixture into a shallow dish and freeze for about 2 hours, stirring every 30 minutes to create a smooth texture.
  2. Once the sorbet is fully frozen, scoop and serve in bowls.

Notes

For storing, keep the sorbet in an airtight container for up to a month. If it becomes too hard, let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes before serving. Consider dividing into smaller containers for convenience.
