Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 400 grams fresh raspberries
- 150 grams granulated sugar
- 120 milliliters water
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Instructions
In a small saucepan, combine the granulated sugar and water. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar fully dissolves to create a simple syrup. This process should take about 3-5 minutes. Set the syrup aside to cool completely.
Rinse the fresh raspberries under cold water and let them drain. Place the raspberries in a blender or food processor and blend until smooth.
Use a fine-mesh sieve to strain the raspberry puree into a bowl, pressing with a spatula to extract as much liquid as possible. Discard the seeds left behind in the sieve.
Once the simple syrup has cooled, add it to the bowl with the raspberry puree. Stir in the lemon juice and mix until everything is well combined.
Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions, typically around 20-25 minutes, until the sorbet reaches a smooth and creamy consistency.
Transfer the sorbet into an airtight container and freeze for 2-3 hours to firm up before serving.
To serve, scoop the sorbet into bowls or cones and garnish with fresh raspberries or mint leaves, if desired. Enjoy!
