This Cherry Lemon Sorbet is a refreshing and tangy treat made with fresh cherries and lemon juice, sweetened with agave syrup. Perfect for cooling down on hot days, this sorbet is both vegan and dairy-free.
Ingredients
- 4 cups fresh cherries pitted
- 1/2 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 1/2 cup agave syrup or to taste
- 1 cup water
Instructions
- Prepare the Cherries: Pit the fresh cherries and place them in a blender or food processor.
- Blend the Ingredients: Add the lemon juice, agave syrup, and water to the blender with the cherries.
- Blend until smooth and fully combined. Taste the mixture and adjust the sweetness by adding more agave syrup if needed.
- Strain the Mixture: Pour the blended mixture through a fine mesh sieve into a large bowl, pressing down with a spoon to extract as much liquid as possible. This step is optional but will result in a smoother sorbet.
- Chill the Mixture: Cover the bowl and refrigerate the mixture for at least 2 hours, or until thoroughly chilled.
- Freeze the Sorbet: Pour the chilled mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions until it reaches a soft-serve consistency.
- Transfer the sorbet to an airtight container and freeze for an additional 2-4 hours, or until firm.
- Serve: Scoop the sorbet into bowls or cones and serve immediately. Garnish with fresh cherries or a lemon slice if desired.
