Tips:

  • Use ripe limes. The riper the limes, the more flavorful the sherbet salad will be. Look for limes that are deep green in color and free of blemishes.
  • Zest the limes before juicing them. The zest of the limes contains a lot of flavor, so it's important to zest them before juicing them. Use a microplane or a fine grater to zest the limes.
  • Use fresh mint. Fresh mint adds a refreshing flavor to the sherbet salad. If you don't have fresh mint, you can use dried mint, but the flavor will be less intense.
  • Chill the salad before serving. The sherbet salad is best served chilled. Chill it for at least 2 hours, or overnight, before serving.
  • Serve the salad with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream. This will make the salad even more delicious and refreshing.
