Strawberry Watermelon Sorbet Fresh and Flavorful Treat
Ingredients
- 3 cups watermelon, cubed and seeds removed
- 2 cups strawberries, hulled and sliced
- 0.5 cup sugar
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 pinch salt
Instructions
- In a blender, combine the cubed watermelon, sliced strawberries, sugar, lemon juice, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt.
- Blend on high until you achieve a smooth puree, ensuring there are no lumps of fruit remaining.
- Taste the mixture and adjust the sweetness if necessary by adding more sugar.
- Pour the puree into a shallow dish and cover it tightly with plastic wrap.
- Freeze the mixture for about 2 hours, then remove it from the freezer and stir it vigorously with a fork to break up any ice crystals.
- Return the dish to the freezer and continue to freeze for an additional 2-3 hours or until the sorbet is firm and scoopable.
- Before serving, let the sorbet sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes for easier scooping.
- Serve the sorbet in chilled bowls or cones, and garnish with fresh mint leaves or sliced fruits if desired.
