Ingredients
- 4 cups fresh raspberries
- 1 cup water
- 0.75 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons honey
Directions
Step 1
Begin by rinsing the raspberries under cool running water. Drain them thoroughly.
Step 2
In a medium saucepan, combine the water and granulated sugar. Place on medium heat and stir until the sugar has completely dissolved, forming a simple syrup. This should take about 5 minutes.
Step 3
Remove the syrup from heat and allow it to cool to room temperature.
Step 4
In a blender or food processor, combine the raspberries and the cooled simple syrup. Blend until completely smooth.
Step 5
Pour the raspberry mixture through a fine mesh strainer into a large bowl to remove the seeds, pressing down with a spatula to extract as much liquid as possible.
Step 6
Stir in the lemon juice and honey. Mix until thoroughly combined.
Step 7
Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions. This usually takes about 15–20 minutes.
Step 8
Transfer the churned sorbet into an airtight container and freeze for at least 2 hours or until firm.
Step 9
Before serving, let the sorbet sit at room temperature for a few minutes to soften slightly.
