Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups (diced) ripe cantaloupe or honeydew melon
- 1 large (diced) ripe mango
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar (optional, based on sweetness of fruit)
- 1 cup water
Instructions
Prepare the fruit: Peel and seed the cantaloupe or honeydew melon. Dice enough to measure 2 cups. Peel and dice the mango, ensuring you remove the large seed in the center.
In a blender or food processor, add the diced melon, mango, lime juice, and water. Blend until smooth and creamy. Taste the mixture, and if needed, add up to 2 tablespoons of sugar depending on the sweetness of the fruit. Blend again to incorporate the sugar.
Pour the blended mixture through a fine-mesh strainer into a large bowl to remove any pulp or fibers, ensuring a smooth texture.
Transfer the strained mixture to an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions (usually 20-30 minutes) until it reaches a soft-serve consistency.
If you do not have an ice cream maker, pour the mixture into a shallow, freezer-safe container. Freeze for 2-3 hours, stirring every 30 minutes with a fork to break up ice crystals until the sorbet is smooth.
Once churned or frozen to the desired texture, serve immediately for a soft texture or transfer to an airtight container and freeze for an additional 1-2 hours for a firmer sorbet.
Scoop into bowls or cones, garnish with fresh mint or lime zest if desired, and enjoy your refreshing Melon Mango Sorbet!
