Method
Preparation
- Wash, hull, peel, and chop 2 cups of fresh fruit into uniform pieces.
- In a blender, combine the chopped fruit, 1/4 cup sugar, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, and 1 cup cold water. Blend until completely smooth — about 30–60 seconds on high depending on your blender.
- Taste a small spoonful of the puree. If needed, adjust the sweetness with sugar or lemon juice.
- If using seeded berries, pour the blended mixture through a fine mesh sieve into a bowl, pressing gently to extract as much flavor as possible.
- Pour the finished puree into your Ninja Creami pint container, leaving a small headspace at the top.
- Place the pint in the freezer upright and freeze for at least 24 hours.
Processing
- Remove the pint from the freezer, unlock and remove the lid, then install it in your Ninja Creami.
- Select the 'Sorbet' program and process.
- After the initial spin, evaluate the texture and use the 'Re-spin' function if needed.
- Scoop the sorbet into chilled bowls and serve immediately or refrigerate for a firmer texture.
- Garnish with mint leaves, fruit slices, or lemon zest before serving.
Notes
Store sorbet in an airtight container for up to 2-3 weeks. Let sit at room temperature for 3-5 minutes before scooping if too hard.
