Tips:
- Use ripe and flavorful berries: The better the quality of your berries, the better your sorbet will be. Look for berries that are plump, brightly colored, and have a sweet aroma.
- Freeze the berries before making the sorbet: This will help to create a smooth and icy texture. You can freeze the berries whole or sliced.
- Use a blender or food processor to make the sorbet: This will help to break down the berries and create a smooth puree. If you don't have a blender or food processor, you can also use a fork to mash the berries until they are smooth.
- Add sugar or honey to taste: Some berries are more tart than others, so you may need to add a little sugar or honey to sweeten the sorbet. Start with a small amount and add more to taste.
- Serve the sorbet immediately or freeze it for later: Sorbet can be served immediately after it is made, or it can be frozen for up to 2 weeks. To freeze the sorbet, simply transfer it to an airtight container and place it in the freezer.
