I'm giving this recipe one star because it's the lowest rating I can give it. This sorbet was the worst thing I've ever tasted.

This sorbet was a bit icy. I think I over-churned it.

I had a hard time finding ripe pears. I ended up using unripe pears and the sorbet was a bit tart.

This sorbet is a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less sugar next time.

I'm not a big fan of ginger, but I still enjoyed this sorbet. The pear flavor is really strong and the ginger is just a subtle hint.

This sorbet was easy to make and turned out great! The only thing I would change is to add a little more ginger for a stronger flavor.

This sorbet was a delightful treat! The pear and ginger flavors were perfectly balanced, and the texture was smooth and creamy. I especially enjoyed the hint of spice from the ginger.
