Ingredients
  

  • 4 cups Fresh strawberries Ripe strawberries give the best flavor, so choose the juiciest ones from your local market.
  • 1 cup Sugar Granulated sugar enhances the sweetness; you can also substitute with honey for a healthier option.
  • 1 tablespoon Lemon juice A dash of fresh lemon juice elevates the flavor and balances the sweetness of the strawberries.
  • 1 cup Water Water helps achieve the right consistency, ensuring the sorbet blends smoothly.

Equipment

  • Airtight Container

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Strawberry Sorbet
  1. In a blender, combine 4 cups of hulled and sliced fresh strawberries, 1 cup of granulated sugar, 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, and 1 cup of water. Blend the mixture on high speed until it's completely smooth, about 1-2 minutes.
  2. Pour the blended strawberry mixture into a bowl and cover it with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for about 1 hour, allowing the flavors to meld together and the mixture to cool.
  3. After chilling, transfer the mixture to your ice cream maker, following the manufacturer's instructions. Churn the strawberry sorbet for approximately 20-30 minutes, until it reaches a soft-serve consistency.
  4. Once churned, transfer the strawberry sorbet into an airtight container. Smooth the top with a spatula, and seal tightly. Place it in the freezer for at least 4 hours, or until it's firm.
  5. To serve your homemade Strawberry Sorbet, scoop it into bowls or cones using a sturdy ice cream scoop and garnish with fresh strawberries or mint leaves if desired.
