Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups fresh or frozen raspberries
- 0.75 cups granulated sugar
- 0.5 cups water
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- optional mint leaves (for garnish)
Instructions
In a small saucepan, combine the granulated sugar and water over medium heat.
Stir continuously until the sugar dissolves completely, forming a simple syrup. This should take about 3-5 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool to room temperature.
In a blender or food processor, add the raspberries and cooled simple syrup.
Blend until smooth. If desired, strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve to remove seeds.
Stir in the lemon juice for a bright, tangy flavor.
Transfer the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions until it reaches a sorbet consistency.
If you don't have an ice cream maker, pour the mixture into a shallow, freezer-safe dish and freeze for about 2-3 hours, stirring every 30 minutes to break up ice crystals.
Once frozen, scoop and serve. Garnish with mint leaves if desired. Enjoy your homemade raspberry sorbet!
