This sorbet is delicious, but it's a bit too minty for me. I would recommend using less mint next time.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my sorbet turned out icy. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

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 mint, but I actually really enjoyed this sorbet. The mint flavor is very subtle.

This sorbet is a great way to use up fresh mint. I have a lot of mint growing in my garden, so I'm always looking for new ways to use it.
