ingredients
- 1 cup frozen strawberries
- 2⁄3 cup frozen blueberries
- 1⁄4 cup lemon juice
-
syrup
- 1 cup water
- 2⁄3 cup sugar
directions
- To make the syrup: mix sugar and water together in a small saucepan. Warm over medium heat, stirring till sugar is completely dissolved. Remove from heat. (It it not necessary to boil the syrup, in fact the less you heat it the quicker it will cool.).
- After the syrup has cooled enough that you can stick your finger in comfortably, you are ready to make the sorbet.
- Pour strawberries, then blueberries into blender. Add the lemon juice, and enough syrup to cover the berries halfway. Pulse, blend, etc. until you have a smooth puree. Serve immediately, or freeze in a plastic container with a layer of wax paper or saran wrap touching the top to prevent freezer burn. Remove from the freezer 5-10 minutes before serving to soften.

Thanks Random Rachel. I made it in a little more than 10 mins, but next time it will be less. I used 1 part each blueberries and mango and 1/2 part strawberries, which I cut up before blending. Main work was clearing the blades of bubbles. I added ginger and cranberry juice to the lemon (no reduction in lemon) and sweetened with 2T erythrytol and 15 packets mixed splenda, cyclamate (from Canada), saccharin, and monkfruit crystals, for a total of about 1.5 liters finished product. It is wet, so I re-froze it in flattened ziploc bags (sprayed one with canola oil to ensure it doesn't stick; I doubt it will). Very excited. Tastes great. Thanks again.

Fabulous! And so pretty! I used my Vitamix and it was ready in nothing flat. I cut the sugar, (used Splenda), down to 1/3 cup, but mind you, I like mine somewhat tart! It was the perfect amount of sweetness for me. This was truly wonderful and refreshing. I have decided to serve it at a dinner party I'm having next month, and I know my guests will love it too!
