How To Make Sorbet with Any Fruit

When you have a glut of fresh summer fruit, sorbets are the answer. You don't need a recipe — just a basic template to follow and a little creativity. Strawberry-peach sorbet? Mint-infused watermelon sorbet? Raspberry-rosé sorbet? Yes, let's make all of these this summer. Let me show you just how easy homemade sorbets can be with this step-by-step recipe

The easiest way to add sugar is to make a simple sugar syrup. Simmer equal parts sugar and water until the sugar is dissolved and let it cool. Most summer fruits are sweet enough on their own that we barely need to add any sugar. Remember, though, that freezing dulls sweet flavors, so we want the base to taste slightly too sweet before we freeze.


Ingredients

  • 2 pounds fresh fruit (4 to 5 cups after prepping and slicing)
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 to 4 tablespoons lemon juice
  • Equipment
  • Chef's knife or paring knife
  • Cutting board
  • Small saucepan
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Mixing bowl
  • Mixing spoons
  • Blender, food processor, or immersion blender
  • Fine-mesh strainer
  • 1 large egg in its shell
  • Ice cream machine
  • Pint containers or other container, for freezing the ice cream

Instructions

  1. Freeze the ice cream base: At least 24 hours before making the sorbet, place the ice cream base in the freezer to freeze.
  2. Prepare the fruit: Wash and dry the fruit. Cut away or remove any rinds, peels, pits, seeds, stems, or other non-edible parts of the fruit. Slice the fruit into bite-sized pieces. You should have around 5 cups of chopped fruit, though a little more or less is fine.
  3. Prepare the simple syrup: Combine the sugar and water in a small saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat, stirring gently once or twice. Simmer until the sugar is completely dissolved in the water, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool.
  4. Combine the fruit and 1/2 cup of simple syrup: Combine the fruit and 1/2 cup of the cooled simple syrup in a blender, the bowl of a food processor, or in a mixing bowl (if using an immersion blender). Reserve the remaining syrup.
  5. Blend until the fruit is completely liquified: Blend the fruit and the syrup until the fruit is completely liquified and no more chunks of fruit remain.
