What's For Dessert: Lemon-Berry Sorbet



We're still working on cleaning out our freezer, and this recipe used up the last of our frozen berry collection. (Yay -- I think we're getting closer to actually emptying the whole thing out!) I opted to sweeten this sorbet with a little honey; the resulting frozen treat is still a bit tart, so if you like things a little sweeter, I'd suggest adding a bit more sweetener to taste. I really love the deep red color of this sorbet -- it would make for a fantastic presentation.

Lemon-Berry Sorbet (printer-friendly version)
makes six servings

4 cups frozen berries (I used a blend of blueberries, blackberries, and raspberries)
1 lemon, peeled and seeded
1 tablespoon honey
1/4 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 cup water

1. Add the ingredients to a Vitamix blender.
2. Start the blender on low, variable 1. Quickly switch to high, and turn up to variable 10.
3. Use the plunger to press the ingredients into the blades. Blend for 30-45 seconds, or until four mounds form. Don't overblend, or you'll end up with not-so-frozen sorbet.
4. Serve immediately. Freeze leftovers in an airtight container.
