Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 1 Cup Fresh Lime Juice
  • 1 Cup Filtered Water
  • 1/3 Cup Sweetened Condensed Coconut Milk

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: Add the fresh lime juice, filtered water, and sweetened condensed coconut milk into a high-speed blender to prepare the sorbet base.
  2. Blend Mixture: Blend the lime mixture on high for about 30 seconds until fully combined and smooth.
  3. Freeze Mixture: Pour the blended mixture into a freezer-safe airtight container and freeze for approximately 6 hours or overnight until solid.
  4. Defrost Slightly: Remove the container from the freezer and allow it to defrost for about 10 minutes to soften slightly.
  5. Re-blend for Creaminess: Break the frozen sorbet into smaller chunks and add them to a food processor or blender. Blend until the mixture becomes smooth and creamy.
  6. Serve: Use an ice cream scoop to serve the lime sorbet into bowls or cones and enjoy immediately.

Notes

  • Use fresh lime juice for the best flavor and a vibrant, natural tartness.
  • Sweetened condensed coconut milk is a dairy-free alternative to traditional condensed milk, making this recipe vegan-friendly.
  • Allowing the sorbet to soften slightly before re-blending ensures a smooth, scoopable texture.
  • Store any leftovers in the airtight container in the freezer and let soften before serving.
