Blackberry Lemon Sorbet

You don’t need an ice cream machine to make this slightly sweet, tart and refreshing after-dinner treat. Feel free to mix up the flavors and try this recipe with other berries!

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup water
  • ¾ cup sugar
  • 4 cups blackberries, rinsed
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions
 

  • Serves 4–6
    Make a simple syrup by heating water and sugar in a saucepan over medium heat until all the sugar dissolves and the mixture starts to boil. Remove from heat and let cool completely.
    Place blackberries in a food processor or blender with lemon juice, vanilla and simple syrup; blend until smooth. Use a fine mesh strainer over a bowl to remove the seeds. Pour the berry liquid onto a rimmed baking sheet lined with parchment paper and place in the freezer for 1 to 2 hours until frozen.
    Remove from the freezer and break the frozen puree into pieces that will fit into the food processor. Blend until smooth. Serve immediately or freeze in a covered container until you are ready to serve. After freezing, let it sit on the counter for 5 minutes before serving.
