Strawberry Sorbet

In: kitchen

22 Feb 2009

Fast, simple, and utterly delicious.

  • 1lb bag frozen strawberries, partially thawed (I leave them on the counter for an hour or two in the bag)
  • 3/4c powdered/confectioners sugar
  • 3Tbsp vodka
  • Juice of one lemon (fresh is best)

Cut open the bag of semi-frozen strawberries and dump it (and any liquid) into the blender.  Add remaining ingredients, puree thoroughly. Pour into ice cream freezer (I have one of these), and freeze according to directions.  Can be eaten soft serve or put in the freezer to harden.

Using the confectioners sugar and the semi-frozen strawberries makes it so you don’t have to let your sorbet mix chill in the fridge before making it into sorbet – it’s already cold, and you don’t need to make and then cool a simple syrup. The vodka is in there just to help it stay scoopable/softer when fully frozen – you won’t taste the alcohol.

Hi! I'm Anna.
I ramble, have too many hobbies, and post anything that strikes my fancy. On any given day, I might be knitting, sewing, working on my house, presenting a recipe or discussing something deeper. Though maybe food can be pretty deep too.
Stay awhile and look around, who knows what you'll find?
