This Strawberry Sorbet is easy to make and uses only a few ingredients. It's dairy-free, low-carb, and most of all delicious!

During the warmer spring and summer months, you'll see our daughters eating all the berries they can find. Our oldest can eat an entire container of strawberries in one sitting if we let her. The last time we went berry picking, I had to tell them to charge me more than they were going to because I was pretty sure she ate a few pounds of them before we even left the fields, haha.

Anytime I make something out of strawberries, she loves it. So naturally, I tend to make more when I have them in season. It makes the berries last a little bit longer before they are eaten. At least that's what I tell myself, so I don't question where all the berries had gone that I just bought hours before.

What is Sorbet?

Sorbet is a frozen treat usually made with ingredients like fruit, fruit juice, sugar, and water. They are typically dairy-free, but some varieties do contain dairy. This is not one of them.

Sorbet vs. Sherbet vs. Ice Cream

Sorbet is the fruit, or fruit puree + water + sugar. It does not contain milk, cream, or eggs. 

Ice Cream is milk or cream +sugar + fruit, or other flavors added. It usually has a custard-type base and often contains dairy and eggs.

Sherbet lies somewhere between the two. It starts like sorbet with the fruit +water +sugar but often has dairy added. 

If you're wondering how the creaminess compares, it's usually ice cream, then sherbet, and then sorbet, with it being the iciest in the texture of the three.

How to Make Strawberry Sorbet

  1. Freeze your strawberries (if starting from fresh)
  2. Place the frozen strawberries into a food processor and blend until smooth.
  3. Add water to the mixture until the desired consistency is achieved.
  4. Add the honey or sugar as needed for sweetness. 
Strawberry sorbet steps from blending the strawberries, water and sweetener to get a smooth and tasty sorbet.

How long does sorbet last in the freezer?

Sorbet will hold about a month in the freezer, so go ahead and double or triple the batch if you want some extras. When you want to eat it, remember to let it sit out for about 5 minutes to soften to make it easier to serve.
