Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups fresh raspberries
- 1 cup water
- 0.75 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons honey
Instructions
Begin by rinsing the raspberries under cool running water. Drain them thoroughly.
In a medium saucepan, combine the water and granulated sugar. Place on medium heat and stir until the sugar has completely dissolved, forming a simple syrup. This should take about 5 minutes.
Remove the syrup from heat and allow it to cool to room temperature.
In a blender or food processor, combine the raspberries and the cooled simple syrup. Blend until completely smooth.
Pour the raspberry mixture through a fine mesh strainer into a large bowl to remove the seeds, pressing down with a spatula to extract as much liquid as possible.
Stir in the lemon juice and honey. Mix until thoroughly combined.
Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions. This usually takes about 15–20 minutes.
Transfer the churned sorbet into an airtight container and freeze for at least 2 hours or until firm.
Before serving, let the sorbet sit at room temperature for a few minutes to soften slightly.
