Ingredients
- 1 cup fresh or frozen cranberries
- 2 cups pineapple chunks (fresh or canned, drained)
- 0.75 cup granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup water
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon honey (optional)
Directions
Step 1
In a medium saucepan, combine the cranberries, granulated sugar, and water. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the cranberries start to pop and soften, about 7-10 minutes.
Step 2
Remove the saucepan from heat and allow the cranberry mixture to cool for 10-15 minutes.
Step 3
In a blender or food processor, combine the cooked cranberry mixture, pineapple chunks, lemon juice, and honey (if using). Blend until smooth and creamy.
Step 4
Optional: Strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve to remove any pulp or cranberry skins for a smoother texture.
Step 5
Transfer the mixture to a shallow, freezer-safe container. Cover tightly with a lid or plastic wrap.
Step 6
Place the container in the freezer for 2-3 hours, stirring with a fork every 30 minutes to break up ice crystals and create a smooth sorbet texture.
Step 7
Once fully frozen, scoop and serve the Cranberry Pineapple Sorbet into bowls or cones for a vibrant and refreshing treat.
